Guest pooks Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Hello, I wanted to install Bugs from Softaculous (i know its outdated, i dont care) but it wont install until mcrypt is enabled. I went here (I know its outdated too/old) and it said that it was. Could you enable it for me so I can install Bugs? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolstech Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 First off, be aware that most older software expects 5.x. PHP 7 is not fully backwards compatible with 5.x (in fact, it's nowhere near), so odds are pretty good that program will have strange issues (or just not run at all) on 7.2. I looked that program up, it's from 2015 and was written for PHP 5.4. On Tommy, all of our 5.x versions already have mcrypt enabled. Switch to 5.6 (or 5.4 if 5.6 is still too new) and it will work properly. That's not to say it won't run on 7.2 if we enable mcrypt (and Krydos should be able to enable that for you), but be aware that it may not function as intended of you run it on 7.x.

Krydos Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Mcrypt is already installed on Tommy's PHP 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, and 7.1. Mcrypt isn't available for php 7.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
