Public bug reported: I have done the following:
sudo apt-get install mcrypt sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt sudo ln -s /etc/php5/fpm/conf.d/20-mcrypt.ini /etc/php5/mods-available/mcrypt.ini sudo php5enmod mcrypt I then have restarted php-fpm (and actually restarted nginx as well, just in case) When i go to the page with the mcrypt functions i get the following in the log: 2014/11/18 19:16:54 [error] 10779#0: *3 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mcrypt_module_open() in /srv/www/dbtest/a.php on line 5" while reading upstream, client: 127.0.0.1, server: localhost, request: "GET /dbtest/a.php HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock:", host: "localhost" phpinfo shows the authors of mcrypt, but that's the only entry Also: $ php5-fpm -m|grep mcrypt mcrypt $ sudo apt-cache policy php5-mcrypt php5-mcrypt: Installed: 5.4.6-0ubuntu5 Candidate: 5.4.6-0ubuntu5 Version table: *** 5.4.6-0ubuntu5 0 500 http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status So it's there, but just doesn't do anything.
