I am running Ubuntu 13.10 desktop and installed a lamp stack (Apache 2.4.6, and PHP Version 5.5.3-1ubuntu2), and I set up virtual hosts. I also apt-get'ed php5-curl, and php5-mcrypt (no errors when installing)
I am trying to set up a Magento (1.8.0.0) development environment and the error I am getting is:
PHP extension "mcrypt" must be loaded.
How do I "load" mcrypt?
