Zenphoto does not see image handlers GD or IM

I am installing ZP 1.4 and everything is set up except I get this error.

Error!

No Zenphoto image handling library was loaded. Be sure that your PHP has a graphics support. The Imagick extension is not available.The GD extension is not available.

I know that these are installed, I even had the server admin double check.. I am installing ZP in a subfolder behind a password, but this shouldn't affect that..

It finished the install, but a lot of things don't work obviously.. When I try to upload a file I don't get the 'select files' option etc..

What could cause ZP to not see the image handling software?? Should I try to install it in a non pw protected folder?? Any other ideas??

I made am IMTest.php file and it returns
Version return code is 0
Version: ImageMagick 6.2.8 10/20/10 Q16 file:/usr/share/ImageMagick-6.2.8/doc/index.html
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2006 ImageMagick Studio LLC

so it is installed..

I'm at a loss..

    Both image libaries are probably not correctly installed. Zenphoto works on normal standard shared hosts. Maybe contact your host.

    To use ImageMagick you need Imagick as well:

    FYI,
    I had this same issue.
    I was just testing ZenPhoto on VirtualBox (Win7 host w/ Natty Narwhal) and just did:
    SUDO apt-get install lamp-server^
    This, apparently, doesn't install Imagick or GD.

    I then used this to solve my issue:
    SUDO apt-get update
    SUDO apt-get install php5-imagick php5-gd.
