Mcrypt problems

[Drezard]

Okay, I've downloaded and installed XAMPP (The apache friends project) on my computer. Now, I want to use Mcrpyt. It has files like libmcrypt.dll and such in the php folder. But when I try to use functions such as mcrypt_module_open() or mcrypt_generic() it gives me errors such as: "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mcrypt_module_open()". Whats wrong?

Was php compiled to use it (--with-mcrypt[=DIR])? See http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/ref.mcrypt.php, also for other copies of dll see http://files.edin.dk/php/win32/mcrypt/

Did you enable them in you php.ini file???

 

if not, go to your XAMP folder (C:\Program Files\XAMPP\PHP\php.ini) and open the file php.ini,

 

1. Find the section with all the dll's to include, find the libmcrypt.dll file, and remove the semi colon at the beginning of the line.

2. Save the file.

3. Restart the Apache service.

 

Let me know if that does it for you.
