It may be a platform depended bug BTW. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-05 11:29:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED] First, the "--disable-posix-threads" requirement for libmcrypt isn't a requirement anymore. As of libmcrypt 2.4.x, you don't need it. Second, I think you should be using the 2.4.x-style mcrypt functions. Look at example 2 at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mcrypt.php Third, blowfish is broken in libmcrypt. It will encode/decode internally, but don't rely on it if you need to pass data to a non-PHP application (e.g. Perl). - Colin --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-05 11:24:02] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using libmcrypt-2.4.10 on Mac OS X 10.0, compiled with --with-apache=/usr/local/src/apache_1.3.19 --with-mysql=/ usr/local --with-mcrypt --enable-track-vars --disable-debug My sample script: <?php $stuff = mcrypt_cbc(MCRYPT_BLOWFISH,"This is my key","this is my message",MCRYPT_ENCRYPT); print base64_encode($stuff); ?> produces this error: Warning: mcrypt module initialization failed in /Users/ clewis/dev/website/public/asdf.php on line 3 libmcrypt was compiled with --disable-posix-threads as suggested on the PHP mcrypt page. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10187 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
