The php-mcrypt package is available in the EPEL repository. You'll need to configure this repository by downloading and installing the epel-release package before trying to install php-mcrypt.

  • I don't know, does it work? Rather download and install the epel-release package with rpm -i, and then use yum install php-mcrypt.

  • this mcrpyt is just for encryption right nothing more I guess. About the mysqli I adjusted the php.ini and it works that is fine right?
