如何解决Mcrypt错误'在PHP Laravel框架中使用未定义的常量MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128'？

Question

By running 'php artisan serve' on my phpstorm, i get this error ' ErrorException in EncryptionServiceProvider.php line 16: Use of undefined constant MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 - assumed ' MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 '' on browser.

I've tried reinstalling mcrypt but it didn't work. Also i didn't find any solution to this problem.

php artisan serve
PHP Notice:  Use of undefined constant MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 - assumed 'MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128' in /Users/optergy/safetybeat-dashboard-live/dashboard/config/app.php on line 83
Laravel development server started on http://localhost:8000/

This error is blocking me to run the project properly.

Answer 1

After reinstalling mcrypt did you enable it? It does not come enabled by default.

sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt
sudo php5enmod mcrypt
sudo service apache2 restart

Or restart nginx if using that.
