Have Fedora, but no mcrypt functionality for PHP?
February 21st, 2008Easy fix, despite the official line from PHP which says you need to recompile PHP –with-mcrypt.
I’ll caveat this by stating I’m using Fedora Core 7…
1) At the terminal, su root - you are now going to yum, not ./configure, make, and make install…
2) yum install mcrypt - this will get you libmcrypt, mhash, and mcrypt
3) yum install php-mcrypt - this will get you the functionality within PHP
Uh…done (without hassles).

Hello,
It worked for me on Godaddy Host. I was trying to install magento commerce and had problems with mcrypt.
Thanks!

No prob! I was using GoDaddy too - I guess it is a host thing.
