#19804 [Bgs->Opn]: PHP does not take the Libmcrypt ciphers when compiling

ID: 19804 User updated by: scott@abcoa.com Reported By: scott@abcoa.com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: *Compile Issues Operating System: AIX 4.3.3 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: Re-opening the bug.... I tried many different ways as the PHP Manual stated and I still get the error messasges, 'Warning: mcrypt module initialization failed in ....'. When PHP manual stated about "mcrypt_module_open (MCRYPT_DES, '', MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, '')" I still get the error, so I tried the other examples. "mcrypt_module_open (MCRYPT_DES, '', MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, '/usr/lib/mcrypt-modes')" I still get the error message. Problme is I have no such directory as "mcrypt-modes" on the server. I also assumed that the 2nd parament refer to "mcrypt-algorithms" since the PHP Manual didn't anything about the 2nd parameter. I checked the PHP Info on the server, the 1st clipping showed the actual result before I add the two lines of code to php.ini. The 2nd clipping showed the actual result of hte 2nd line of codes. (mcrypt directory). --clip-- <h2 align="center"><a name="module_mcrypt">mcrypt</a></h2> <table border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" width="600" bgcolor="#000000" align="center"> <tbody><tr valign="middle" bgcolor="#9999cc"><th>mcrypt support</th><th>enabled</th></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>version</b></td><td align="left">&gt;= 2.4.x</td></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>Supported ciphers</b></td><td align="left">none</td></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>Supported modes</b></td><td align="left">none</td></tr> </tbody></table><br> <table border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" width="600" bgcolor="#000000" align="center"> <tbody><tr valign="middle" bgcolor="#9999cc"><th>Directive</th><th>Local Value</th><th>Master Value</th></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>mcrypt.algorithms_dir</b><br></td><td align="center"><i>no value</i></td><td align="center"><i>no value</i></td></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>mcrypt.modes_dir</b><br></td><td align="center"><i>no value</i></td><td align="center"><i>no value</i></td></tr> </tbody></table> --clip-- --clip-- <h2 align="center"><a name="module_mcrypt">mcrypt</a></h2> <table border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" width="600" bgcolor="#000000" align="center"> <tbody><tr valign="middle" bgcolor="#9999cc"><th>mcrypt support</th><th>enabled</th></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>version</b></td><td align="left">&gt;= 2.4.x</td></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>Supported ciphers</b></td><td align="left">none</td></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>Supported modes</b></td><td align="left">none</td></tr> </tbody></table><br> <table border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" width="600" bgcolor="#000000" align="center"> <tbody><tr valign="middle" bgcolor="#9999cc"><th>Directive</th><th>Local Value</th><th>Master Value</th></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>mcrypt.algorithms_dir</b><br></td><td align="center">/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt</td><td align="center">/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt</td></tr> <tr valign="baseline" bgcolor="#cccccc"><td bgcolor="#ccccff"><b>mcrypt.modes_dir</b><br></td><td align="center">/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt</td><td align="center">/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt</td></tr> </tbody></table> --clip-- This still does not solve my problem.

I was trying to say that I have been working on it for almost a week and I can tell that PHP ./configure didn't find it and when compiling PHP, PHP does not take in hte libmcrypt algorithm. It only take in libmcrypt but not the algorithm or modes. So, I believe I stand correct on this php bug. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-07 14:49:29] scott@abcoa.com I have been working on this issues for almost a week now. I have been trying to get it to work. Yes, I did read the manual at php.net/mcrypt and I still struggle. I will try again with the manual on mcrypt_module_open(). What make you think I did not read this stupid manual? Thanks for the comment and I will try it again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-07 14:36:30] derick@php.net /usr/local/lib/libmcrypt see also: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mcrypt-module-open.php really, read the manual. If you're certain there is still a bug, reopen. Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-07 13:45:55] scott@abcoa.com Okay, the PATH in the php.ini. Not a problem. What exactly should I be looking for in the filepath, like mcrypt.algorithms_dir = ????. What are the example of files inside one of the directory, so I can figure out whether am I looking for in libmcrypt or php. What are hte filenames I should be looking for? Thanks, FletchSOD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-07 13:37:17] derick@php.net Set the paths in your php.ini as described on http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mcrypt.php See "table 1". Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-07 13:11:56] scott@abcoa.com Eh, Didn't finish with all of hte clipping. Could be that bug database can't accept them all. By the make, I did hte best I could on make because it is too long for the computer screen. I tried this command, "make > log_make" but found that not all of hte data go into the log_make and whatever is left is spitted out onto the screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
