i am configuring an existing magento project on local system with WAMP server php version 7.2, while installing magento i get error "PHP extension "mcrypt" must be loaded." Problem is mycrypt is no longer supported in php 7.2, can anyone suggest how can i resolve it?
mcrypt has been moved from php to pecl since 7.2
You still can install it.
Install dependencies
gcc make autoconf libc-dev pkg-config
install the lib itself
libmcrypt-dev
I assume php7.2 and pecl are installed so you just install mcrypt-1.0.1 (or whatever version is in rep.) with pecl
pecl install mcrypt-1.0.1
