I have been trying to install php-mcrypt for a while now. Everytime I get the "No package php-mcrypt available." returned to me. Here's what I've tried:
root@ip-********** [~]# yum install php-mcrypt --enablerepo=centosplus (<- both with and without this)

Setting up Install Process
No package php-mcrypt available.
Error: Nothing to do
I have made sure to install the EPEL repository. At this point I'm just stumped. I've followed EVERY tutorial I've found online and get the same error.
Notes: Go Daddy VPS, CentOS 6.4 64-bit, mcrypt installed without a hitch, but no php-mcrypt.
For me the answer was:
1) Get the Repos from
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh remi-release-6*.rpm epel-release-6*.rpm
2) Install it via:
sudo yum update
sudo yum install php-mcrypt*
3) Edit the mcrypt.ini
sudo nano /etc/php.d/mcrypt.ini
add this
extension=/usr/lib64/php/modules/mcrypt.so
Finally 4) Restart your webserver:
sudo service httpd restart
I run this steps in CentOS 6.3 (64) on Azure From Microsoft Linux image
Hope it helps you.
Best Regards.
First find out your PHP version. In my case 5.6.
php --version
PHP 5.6.27 (cli) (built: Oct 15 2016 21:31:59)
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies
Then:
sudo yum search mcrypt
And choose the best one for your version from the list, I used php56w-mcrypt.
$ sudo yum search mcrypt
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

Finally:
sudo service httpd restart
There are two ways you can address this:
For me, this worked :
yum install php-mcrypt*
and then, restart httpd service
service httpd restart
I tryed @VenomFangs solution but the first step was not needed for me. I already had a newer EPEL version installed. So, the first step following was not usefull, I backed to the snapshot I did before doing modifications and I just used the install and restart above commands.
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh remi-release-6*.rpm epel-release-6*.rpm
CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core)
PS : I know this is not the subject, but if somebody needs it, the keyword can help. I needed to do this because of this error on prestashop. Two keywords I would be glad to use to find this informations are : "php_mycrypt.dll" "php_mcrypt.dll"
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mcrypt_encrypt() in /classes/Rijndael.php on line 46
EDIT 10/06/2016 :
Another Prestashop solution to try in "Advanced Parameters", "Performance", "Ciphering" (FR : Chiffrement), "Use the custom BlowFish class." instead of "Use Rijndael with mcrypt lib. (you must install the Mcrypt extension)."
For php 7 to install mcrypt run:
Centos: sudo yum install php7.0-mcrypt to install
On Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install php7.0-mcrypt
For me I had to add the EPEL repository. It is where my php-mcrypt came from:
[root@system ~]$ repoquery -i php-mcrypt
Name : php-mcrypt
Version : 5.3.3
Release : 1.el6
Architecture: i686
Size : 39225
Packager : Fedora Project
Group : Development/Languages
URL : http://www.php.net/
Repository : epel <----------
Summary : Standard PHP module provides mcrypt library support
Source : php-extras-5.3.3-1.el6.src.rpm
Description :
Standard PHP module provides mcrypt library support
You can enable the EPEL repo with the instructions here:
If php_mcrypt installed on 64bit but reported missing by an installer, check the extension path:
vi /etc/php.d/mcrypt.ini
; Enable mcrypt extension module ;extension=module.so extension=/usr/lib64/php/modules/mcrypt.so
yum install php-mcrypt.x86_64
worked for me instead of
yum install php-mcrypt
If you want to recompile PHP with mcrypt enable.
1.
Insatll mcrypt. libmcrypt-devel is from Third Party Repositories EPEL, so you should:
yum --enablerepo=extras install epel-release
yum install libmcrypt-devel
2.
Append --with-mcrypt to your ./configure arguments:
./configure --with-mcrypt
3. Build and install:
make & make install
I had the same issue, and found the previous suggestions gave me enough info to get it working on my server. The following is what I did:
1) Install EPEL repository (From: http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/installing-rhel-epel-repo-on-centos-5x-or-6x):
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh remi-release-6*.rpm epel-release-6*.rpm
2) Install it via:
yum update
yum install php-mcrypt*
The yum update updated the repository reference on my server then the 2nd command got what I needed :)
3) Restart your webserver. For my apache install I did:
service httpd restart
I was having same issue in centos 6.5
Finaly solution below worked for me
-go to http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/
-search for php-mcrypt(http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm)
-execute wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm
-rpm -ivh php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm
if there are any dependencies you can download same using http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/
Updated Answer for centos 7
## RHEL/CentOS 7 64-Bit ##
# wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/beta/7/x86_64/epel-release-7-0.2.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh epel-release-7-0.2.noarch.rpm

# wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
## RHEL/CentOS 6 64-Bit ##
# wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Install
yum install php-mcrypt
Edit: See comments for updated repositories.
To install mcrypt from http://namhuy.net/641/centos-6-install-mcrypt-for-phpmyadmin.html
i386
rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
x86_64
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
then just use yum command to install the mcrypt package
yum install php-mcrypt
The best way is to:
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum localinstall php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/libmcrypt-2.5.8-9.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum localinstall libmcrypt-2.5.8-9.el6.x86_64.rpm
or go to: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/ to match your version check from your info.php that is ok -- done!
installing php-mcrypt from Repoforge worked for me perfectly. Just add Repoforge from http://repoforge.org/ and simply run yum install php-mcrypt.
I got too much problem in installing php-mcrypt using epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm. It has some dependency problem.
Then I tried in different way.
Get the php-mcrypt using "wget ftp://ftp.univie.ac.at/systems/linux/fedora/epel/6/x86_64/php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm" command.
Then install libmcrypt
The installed php-mcrypt using following command
yum install php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm
Try
yum clean all
yum remove epel-release
yum install epel-release
and finally
yum install php-mcrypt
