Can't upload any new images to Media

I cannot upload any images to the Media section. I receive a 500 internal server error. Even with all permissions set to 777 I get this error. The .htaccess file is set to its defaults from sample.htaccess. Any ideas? Thanks in advanced.

Ok I just realized that it seems I can upload png files (of any size) just fine without error. But I always get the 500 internal server error when uploading jpg files.

D’oh. I see in admin/install.php that GD was not enabled. I ran the following and reset apache:
apt-get install php5.6-gd
Now all is fixed.
