Wordpress: Using svg as header image

Question

I am using wordpress, theme Twenty Fourteen. I would like to add a svg image as header. I have no problems with uploading svg images (I use them already successfully on my webpage), but when I try to use it as head image the following message occurs: "There has been an error cropping your image". Does anybody knows what the problem is?

Thank you! Best wishes, pradhana

I had the same problem. Its the GD Library not installed.

Just use this command to install it:

sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd

Use this to stop Apache for it to make changes

sudo apachectl stop

Start Apache now and everything is fixed.

sudo apachectl start
