PHP : imagegrabscreen() not working on PHP 7.2.27

I am using 7.2.27 PHP version with Laravel 7.

Below code working on my local same configuration,

$captured = imagegrabscreen();
imagepng($captured, "~path/" . time() . ".png");
imagedestroy($captured);

But this code not working on live server it's throwing exception like, Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function imagegrabscreen() in ~file-path:11 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in ~file-path on line 11

I don't know what is the exact issue.

I also checked below answer but I don't know what is php_gd2.dll, https://stackoverflow.com/a/8715544/6656706

Edit: I also tried on AWS ec2 with xampp but not working ! I also tried by installing php_gd2.dll.

Any help will be appreciated !

Thanks.

Solution

  • If the server is on Linux, it can't work because imagegrabscreen() is only supported on Windows:

    Note:

    This function is only available on Windows.

    Also note that the screenshot is performed on the server. It will not capture the user screen.
