It works! Thank you~
Not working on Yosemit..Looking for upgraded version
When a new version for Yosemite is ready we will post it.
Just downloading some security stuff
Hi,
I just wonder if you have upgraded Mcrypt installer to OS X 10.10?
Thank you
Michael
@Michael
Good question Michael…
We did have to create a new mcrypt package for our roundcube installer – its compatible with 10.8 – 10.10.
If you need mcrypt sooner than later, you can install our roundcube package, then delete roundcube (or leave it).. mcrypt would remain in place.
I should have the standalone mcrypt installer ready this week.
This one package will install on 10.8, 10.9 and 10.10

Hi Jeff,
I will wait for the stand alone package for Mcrypt for OS X 10.10
Thanks, really appreciate it.
Regards,
Michael
Thank you :), i will download soon!.
I was download the package and install it. But it seem you forget to remove /user/local/topicdesk directory. Mcrypt will not success installed if /etc/php.ini doesn’t exist, my opinion you should copy from /etc/php.ini.default first if /etc/php.ini doesn’t exist.
Awesome! I am waiting for this since OS X 10.10 launched.
Wonderful it is going to be release this week.
Thanks.

how does one use Mcrypt ? can someone explain why this is useful, is it for bearing up security ? I imagine so but how is it used ? I assume by Roundcube ? if someone has any info I would be most grateful.
Hello,
In addition to mcrypt, I would like to use the postgresql extension pgcrypto, but this is not present in the extension directory of the OSX Server 3.2.1 software:
create extension pgcrypto;
ERROR: could not open extension control file /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/share/postgresql/extension/pg crypto.control: No such file or directory.
Is there a way to add the extension manualy?
Thanks! very usefull tutorial for me
