Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/modules/module.so'

Question

When I run the command

php -v

this error comes up

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library \'/usr/

Answer 1

Buddy, I had the same issue. Just goto your /etc/php/7.*/cli/php.ini file and comment out extension=modulename. This solution is for php version 7+.

Up-vote will be appreciated.

Answer 2

This is cause by mcrypt extension.

Edit /etc/php.d/mcrypt.ini

and change

; Enable mcrypt extension module
extension=module.so

to this

; Enable mcrypt extension module
extension=mcrypt.so

Edit:

If the directory /etc/php.d does not exist – it seems You don`t have php installed or file mcrypt.ini is in different location. Try work around.
