Hi
You can install [url=http://pkgs.org/package/php-mcrypt]php-mcrypt rpm[/url] on CentOS 6 from third-party EPEL repository:
1. Add EPEL repository;
2. Install php-mcrypt rpm:
[code]# yum install php-mcrypt[/code]

yum install is not working.
php-mcrypt no such package.

Did you configure the [url=http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL]EPEL repository[/url] first? See the [url=https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=28723&forum=54]How to Provide Information About Your System[/url] article, and post the results of running "./getinfo.sh package" on your system.

Hello,

Thanks for the info. Most of it worked but I'm having a little issue. I have CentOS 6 and I added the EPEL repository but Php-mcrypt still won't install. When I run "yum install php-mcrypt" I get this.

[root@centos6 sampledomain.com]# yum install php-mcrypt

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[root@centos6 sampledomain.com]#

Anyideas what to do from here?

Thanks,

You have added EPEL repository for CentOS 5, not for CentOS 6.

Oh man! Well I removed the wrong EPEL repository and added the correct one and as expected it worked. Sorry about that.

Thank you,
