I just downloaded and installed a fresh copy of MyBB but I'm having a problem. When trying to register a new account, it says: "The image verification code that you entered was incorrect. Please enter the code exactly how it appears in the image." - But the problem is that there isn't any image verification code. In the Admin CP, even if I able or disable the captcha, it still doesn't show anything in the registration page and it always shows the same message when trying to register.
Anyone knows why?

Check that the server has php-gd installed (The GD extension for PHP).
You can check this via looking at the PHP Info page in the ACP.
I guess not. CTRL + F for 'gd' and didn't find anything in that page. I'm using a VPS with CentOS. Do you know a easy way to install this GD extension?
yum install php-gd
service httpd restart
You're all set.
It says "No package php-gd available". I guess that I have to use wget first, but what's the url?
lol, your new host doesn't have GD? Ouch.
Strangely not, never had this type of problem before. lol

It's a VPS. In most cases it wouldn't come with PHP at all.
@Irreligious - Did you manually build PHP? If not, try using the remi repo.
rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
yum --enablerepo=remi install php-gd
service httpd restart
Remi has the latest version of PHP so make sure you have the latest version of PHP installed too.

warning: u 0xa41dc0 ctrl 0xa43180 nrefs != 0 (dl.fedoraproject.org http)
This is what happens with the first command. As for Remi, I will have to upgrade my php version. This server is using the version 5.3.13.
Yes, if its a custom unamanged VPS, you would need to build it up. But even in unmanaged, most hosts does install the OS, PHP & MySQL.
