Problem solved with the following installer (only works for OSX 10.8 and 10.9):
Mcrypt issues after installing dnsmasq - OS X Mavericks
Question
I'm getting the "Mcrypt PHP extension required." error message with every Laravel projects as well as phpMyAdmin. Everything worked just fine until I installed dnsmasq yesterday.
I tried a bunch of stackoverflow answers but no luck so far...
I'm wondering if dnsmasq has anything to do with this? Anyone else had a similar issue?
Running OSX Maverick 10.9.1, native apache (no mamp here), PHP 5.4.17, latest mysql/phpMyAdmin.
