I can't display a texture on a quad - opengl

Question

I am trying to wrap a texture on a quad.
All I see is a white rectangle:
To load the texture I used freeimage.
I need help in order to fix this very simple demo:
#include <GL/glut.h>
#include <GL/gl.h>
#include <FreeImage.h>
#include <stdio.h>
GLfloat coordinates[] =
{
-0.5, 0.5, 1,
-0.5, -0.5, 0,
0.5, -0.5, 0,
0.5, 0.5, 0
};
GLfloat texCoords[] =
{
0, 1,
0, 0,
1, 0,
1, 1
};
BYTE* data;
FIBITMAP* bitmap;
GLuint texture;
void initGlutCallbacks();
void initGL();
void onReshape(int w, int h);
void display();
FIBITMAP* loadTexture(const char* fileName);
int main(int argc, char** argv){
glutInit(&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_RGBA | GLUT_DOUBLE);
glutInitWindowSize(512, 512);
glutInitWindowPosition(64, 64);
glutCreateWindow("arrays");
initGlutCallbacks();
initGL();
// texture
bitmap = loadTexture("rufol.png");
glGenTextures(1, &texture);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
data = FreeImage_GetBits(bitmap);
glTexImage2D(
GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, 256, 256, 0,
GL_RGBA8, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE,
data
);
// enable arrays
glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);
glEnableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);
// specifying data for the arrays
glVertexPointer
(
3, GL_FLOAT, 0, coordinates
);
glTexCoordPointer
(
2, GL_FLOAT, 0, texCoords
);
glutMainLoop();
}
void initGlutCallbacks(){
glutReshapeFunc(onReshape);
glutDisplayFunc(display);
}
void initGL(){
glClearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
glClearDepth(1.0);
glEnable ( GL_TEXTURE_2D );
}
void onReshape(int w, int h){
}
void display(){
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glTexEnvf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_REPLACE);
glDrawArrays(GL_QUADS, 0, 4);
glFlush();
glutSwapBuffers();
}
FIBITMAP* loadTexture(const char* fileName){
FIBITMAP *bitmap = FreeImage_Load(FIF_PNG, "rufol.png");
if(bitmap == 0) printf("error loading the image\n");
FIBITMAP *fbitmap = FreeImage_ConvertTo32Bits(bitmap);
FreeImage_Unload(bitmap);
return fbitmap;
}
As you can see I am not even using perspective. Also lighting is not enabled(I don't know if it is required to display textures). I have tested a very similar code but using colors for each vertex instead of texture coordinates and it worked. So I think it might be something wrong when loading the image.

Have you tried using GL_RGBA instead of GL_RGBA8 as second parameter (format)?
