How do I install mcrypt? I'm using Leopard 10.5.8 with PHP5.

Follow the instructions; checking info.php -- no mcrypt. Ideas?

Did php compile without warnings with mcrypt enabled?

In which stage? I'm not quite sure. If you'd tell me which command to run, it'll be very helpful.

Well if you look at the linked page, below "Build and Install PHP". Commands to run are the lines in the orange box, not starting with hashmarks.

A:
It depends on how you've installed PHP.
If you installed PHP via macports, you can:
sudo port install php5-mcrypt +universal
If you custom-compiled your PHP, it's probably easiest to just recompile with: --with-mcrypt=/path/to/mcrypt
(Not sure where macports actually keeps it, since I don't use macports, but just compile my AMP stack (and most dependencies) from source)

I tried running 'sudo port install php5-mcrypt +universal" and got this: <code>Skipping org.macports.activate (mcrypt +universal) since this port is already active</code>But info.php shows nothing, and phpMyAdmin still claims mcrypt is nowhere around its sight.
