Bug #10927: mycrpt no longer works in 4.0.5

From: chris@gameshrine.com Operating system: FreeBSD PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: mcrypt related Bug description: mycrpt no longer works in 4.0.5 We have just upgraded to the latest version of PHP in order to take advantage of some new features, particularly those dealing with arrays. Our user accounts store (amongst other things) two variables, the username and password in a mySQL database. The password is encrypted using mcrypt. The key for which is provided by generating an md5 string of the given username. decryption does not occur; encrypted strings are compared for similarity using strcmp(). Ever since we upgraded to 4.0.5, *all* mcrypt functions are failing - no encryption takes place and PHP returns no error, simply failing to produce anything. Please fix this ASAP. This is not a code issue, it is an issue with the mcrypt functionality since the latest release of PHP. Many thanks. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10927&edit=1
