Creating a project in laravel

[admin]

This is because PHP extension Mycrypt not installed on your computer. To install, run

sudo apt-get install php5-crypt
sudo php5enmod mcrypt
sudo service apache2 restart

Tell me if that fixed the problem.

@sherly

When running commands, be careful. Read what it says. Your first command itself failed. Then stop and inventigate. Don't continue with further commands if first one failed.

When running a group of commands, don't run all at once, run one at a time, read what computers says, if it was success or failure.

See, server can't find the package with name php5-crypt.

Actual name of the package is

php5-mcrypt

So run

sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt

I am not fixing first post, that is error on my part. Lets keep that error, so others follow this post know what to do when an error happens or something did not work. Read what computer said and try to understand. No 6th sense needed here.

Paste the result here. So we can see what it will be like when built-in web server working properly.
