Bcrypt hashing not supported, Mcrypt installed

Trying to hash a password in laravel four using Hash::make('password'); and get the error Bcrypt hashing not supported. in return.

Mcrypt is installed and phpinfo() confirms this, what else could be wrong?

Debian 6.0 X64 with PHP 5.3.3-7.

Solution

  • The Laravel requirements are PHP >=5.3.7

    You said you are running 5.3.3-7 - which is less than 5.3.7

    Can you upgrade your PHP version?
