yum install php-mcrypt

Question

I installed mcrypt via "yum install php-mycrypt" but php still says it can't find it. How do I configure php to find it?

Answer 1

Try checking the list of php modules:

php -m

If it's not listed, and no error appears it's probably not being loaded. Check /etc/php.ini and /etc/php.d/* and add an "extension=" line if it's not their alread.

Answer 2

Have you restarted Apache?

service httpd restart

assuming CentOS/RHEL from the "yum".

Answer 3

I think it's yum install php-mcrypt

Or try listing/searching for it. yum list php*
