Answer 1

mcrypt problem in phpmyadmin on ubuntu server 14.04, how to beat ?
Installing the extension.
Create an ini file if it doesn't exist.

➜  ~  cat /etc/php5/mods-available/mcrypt.ini 
; configuration for php MCrypt module
; priority=20
extension=mcrypt.so

Turn on the module.
We reboot the server.

Answer 2

is the extension enabled in php.ini ?

Answer 3

Most importantly, do not forget that different configs are used for the web server and cli mode. Look into phiinfo() and php -i | grep ini

Answer 4

In ubuntu 13.10 I set the mcrypt extension something like this:

apt-get install php5-mcrypt
sudo ln -s /etc/php5/conf.d/mcrypt.ini /etc/php5/mods-available/mcrypt.ini
sudo php5enmod mcrypt
