Issue in installing Mcrypt extension in mac OS 10.13 - macos

I am trying to run codeigniter project on mac but it is showing "The Encrypt library requires the Mcrypt extension." error.I have tried many solutions to install Mcrypt extension but every time i am getting errors.I have tried to install it using homebrew using brew install php5-mcrypt command but getting No available formula with the name "php5-mcrypt" error everytime.Issue is i am new to mac so now I am stuck because i don't know how to solve this issue. Can anyone help me and give me guidance that exactly what should i do to install Mcrypt extension? I am using PHP version 7.2.4 and macOS 10.13: High Sierra (Lobo).

I would recommend you try MacPorts. It's like Homebrew but I've had better luck recently. There is a port for php72-mcrypt if that's the one you are after. There are many others available as well. The MacPorts home page, found here gives instructions for loading MacPorts and also has a list of available ports.

mcrypt has been removed from PHP core since 7.2. To install mcrypt in PHP 7.2, you have to install via PCEL. The command is:
sudo pecl install mcrypt-1.0.1
You might want to read the official installation documentation as well.

For mac users install MAMP pro and select a php version that has mcrypt.
That is to say any version before php 7.2 .
Start the servers and voila you’re good to go.

I am trying to install civicrm on my Mac and I got error in step no 5

I am trying to install CiviCRM on my laptop through Drupal 8.
please help me with this error.
This is simply that your version of PHP doesn't have the intl extension compiled in.
How you address this, very much depends on how you've installed PHP on your system or, if you haven't at all (and are using the built-in system PHP).
I'm just going to pick a generic route here, and assume this is OSX PHP as some versions don't come with intl support (e.g. PHP 7.3 shipped with macOS Catalina) and say ... Save yourself some time and just use Homebrew to do this. Follow the instructions to install brew, then install your required version of PHP using;
brew update
brew install php#7.3
brew link php#7.3
It likely already has intl support, you can test by using;
php -m | grep intl

How to change Homebrew's prefix?

I'm using MACOS M1, and started to install brew under ARM. Then at the other day, I installed some formula under x86.
When I run a command
brew doctor
And I got this message
Some of Homebrew's bottles (binary packages) can only be used with the default
prefix (/usr/local).
You will encounter build failures with some formulae.
Please create pull requests instead of asking for help on Homebrew's GitHub,
Twitter or any other official channels. You are responsible for resolving
any issues you experience while you are running this
unsupported configuration.
How to change the prefix to /usr/local/?
When I run which -a brew I got this result
/opt/homebrew/bin/brew
/usr/local/bin/brew
Thanks in advance.
I had the same issue because I did not installed the homebrew from the local path on my terminal.
I just uninstalled the homebrew, installed it again (from the local path this time) and it is fine now.
To uninstall Homebrew, run the uninstall script from the HomeBrew/install repository.

Problems with Cocoapods on Xcode 6.4

I'm trying to install and use Cocoapods with Xcode. I've installed already Brew, so I've used this command:
sudo gem install cocoapods
but it stays there, without response and without asking me for password (that's really strange, because of sudo command).
Maybe I got some problem with Brew Installation or Ruby on my Yosemite iMac?
I met the same error in the past, there is something wrong with my development environment. I re-install the Command Line Tools follow this guide, then everything is ok.
You can get the detail information from here, hope it can help you.

Building XDebug For Use by MAMP?

I'm using MAMP on Mac OSX Mavericks. I'd like to install the latest XDebug, v2.2.4. Per the XDebug Wizard, I downloaded the XDebug 2.2.4 source. I have many versions of phpize installed on my system - one that is in /usr/bin/, and many others that come with MAMP. MAMP supplies the required phpize for each version of PHP it includes.
Seeking to use the correct phpize, per the XDebug Wizard instructions - http://xdebug.org/docs/faq#custom-phpize - I ran the phpize for PHP 5.5.3 via:
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/bin/phpize
..and got this output:
grep: /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/include/php/main/php.h: No such file or directory
grep: /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/include/php/Zend/zend_modules.h: No such file or directory
grep: /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/include/php/Zend/zend_extensions.h: No such file or directory
Configuring for:
PHP Api Version:
Zend Module Api No:
Zend Extension Api No:
Just in case this was not an error (since it appeared that I was following XDebug Wizard directions), I then ran configure via:
./configure --with-php-config=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/bin/php-config
...and I ran:
make
...but got this error:
fatal error: 'php.h' file not found
What is the correct way to build XDebug on OSX for use by MAMP?
Thanks very much in advance to all for any thoughts or info.
I had a similar issue and it was resolved after installing XCode and the Command Line Tools for XCode. I already had XCode installed, but I recently moved over to a new machine so I had to open it back up and it updated some things. Then I opened Terminal and ran the command...
xcode-select --install
That popped up a prompt to install the command line tools which I did and it resolved my issue.
Incase anyone else stumbles across this from Google...
My issue was the wrong phpize binary was found on the path.
I was able to resolve this using the Xdebug FAQ, specifically this section: https://xdebug.org/docs/faq#custom-phpize
When Xdebug wizard asks you to run phpize, instead find and run phpize in your MAMP directory. For me, this was:
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.1.19/bin/phpize
After this, you should see an output similar to your tailored installation instructions.
Then find and run php-config in your MAMP directory (Note: this command must be run from where you have Xdebug stored on your machine). For me, this was:
./configure --with-php-config=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.1.19/bin/php-config
You'll see a bunch of output... Followed by a, "Build complete." message.
Now you can return to your tailored installation instructions (be sure to skip the next step, Run: ./configure).
Try installing autoconf using brew : brew install autoconf
