I have set up a MAMP server on my local computer.
The server runs fine, no problems, but I need to install the mcrypt extension on PHP as I need to install Laravel.
I've been following this tutorial:
http://coolestguidesontheplanet.com/install-mcrypt-php-mac-osx-10-9-mavericks-development-server/
I have an issue with the last step. When I create a new php.ini file using the following Terminal command, PHP refuses to run at all.
sudo cp /etc/php.ini.default /etc/php.ini
Basically with no php.ini file in the etc/ folder, the PHP works fine (PHP info pages load, sites using PHP run fine), but when it's in place, no PHP works and loading a PHP info page returns a blank white browser window.
Am I missing something?
