Laravel problems with MCrypt

Question

I'm trying to install all the package's of a Laravel project on a Virtual Machine. I've installed everything but during the composer install action show me the error MCrypt PHP Exstension Required.

But.. Mcrypt is installed! I've also do this actions:

locate mcrypt.ini 
locate mcrypt.so

and writed in mcrypt.ini the mcrypt.so php5 path. so what contain now the mcrypt.ini file? just this text:

exstension=/usr/lib/20131226/mcrypt.so

also used: php5enmod mcrypt and service apache2 restart without any results..

If you create a script with `` in it, does it actually report mcrypt as being installed? — Martin Bean, Dec 04 '15 at 17:52
also check if your apache is using the same PHP version as your CLI — Fabio Antunes, Dec 04 '15 at 17:53
php5-fpm restarted, nothing change and also the php version is just one on this machine... — davidev, Dec 05 '15 at 10:18
On Ubuntu apache and the cli have separate configurations. `php -i` can show different results to ` — Ben Swinburne, Dec 05 '15 at 11:51

Do you have enabled your mcrypt extension?

Try with this command, it will tell you all the php extensions you have installed and wich one of them is active and wich one is not

dpkg --get-selections | grep php

If mcrypt is not enabled then try again to enable it with

sudo php5enmod mcrypt
