>I have tried it without specifying the directory, but I think if I don't it says it can't find it. I'm using my home directory because I'm "virtual hosting" and if I don't, I get permission >errors. What is "ld.so.conf", and where would I find it? ld.so.conf (in /etc on my box) contains a list of dirs that ld (gnu dynamic linker) checks for shared objects/libraries, ELF, etc. You won't have any control of that if you're virtual-hosting. Try doing: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/the/mcrypt/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH export $LD_LIBRARY_PATH which only affects your environment. That might do the trick. regards /b -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
