I have been trying to install Laravel5 using Composer (on my Xampp server). I have followed all the steps from the official Laravel's site, but I am getting the following errors while installing the dependencies.
Problem 1 - Installation request for laravel/framework v5.0.16 -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v5.0.16].
- laravel/framework v5.0.16 requires ext-mcrypt * -> the requested PHP extension mcrypt is missing from your system.
I have even installed php5 mcrypt but still having the same issue. I have followed so many forums (including Stack Overflow) but none of the answers worked for me.
