This error means that the OpenSSL library is missing. Change the line extension=php_openssl.dll in php.ini (located in the Windows directory) to ;extension=php_openssl.dll. Reboot.
If you need OpenSSL, let us know. Kind regards, e-novative |

I am actually having the same problem with the newest version of WAMP.
I have actually tried loading several modules, and they work fine. However, php_mcrypt.dll will *NOT* load. I have attached an image so you can see my exact problem. This pops up, *twice* upon restarting Apache. 
Any idea what is going? We all know the module exists... |

| You must install the mcyrpt.dll to your Windows\system32 directory. | |

Thanks, but I had actually tried that before.
It does *not* work. What bewilders me is that it actually states (in that dialog) the entire path including name and extension of a valid file that *is* there. No clue why it is behaving thusly. |

It finally dawned on me (several weeks ago) to check dependencies. That solved it cleanly.
php_mcrypt.dll requires libmcrypt.dll. This DLL needs to be located in your C:\WINDOWS\system32\ folder on a default install... HOWEVER... It is much safer/wiser to make sure the base PHP directory (C:\Program Files\e-novative\WAMP\php, perhaps?) is added to your system PATH variable. |
