libgd.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

There's your problem. Either you don't have libgd installed or it isn't installed in the right place.

    But I have correctly installed the libgd-gd-2.1.1 and give the path of directory in .bashrc.

    Should i give the path (in .bashrc) where libgd.so.3 is located I could not understand. PLease explains little.

      Did you use ldconfig when you installed libgd? Where is libgd.so.3? How (precisely) did you install libgd? What is the value of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

      Some or all of these could have a bearing on whether the test script can find the library. This is not really a perl-specific issue - it's a question of being able to correctly install and use third-party libraries.

        I simply install libgd-gd-2.1.1 by extrat it. ./confugure --prefix=same directory where I extarctit, make and make install I never used these things like ldconfig. libgd.so.3 is in the libgd-gd-2.1.1/lib/libgd.so.3 as a simlink (libgd.so.3 -> libgd.so.3.0.0) What I HAVE TO DO NOW ??
