I just upgraded from php 7.4.15 to php 8.0.3, fixed some library issues and now i am stuck with this error:
Call to undefined function Illuminate\Encryption\openssl_cipher_iv_length()
when i call my laravel (8+) site. Did anybody had this error and solved it?
OS: Windows (it shouldn't make a diff, but you never know).
THAT gave the clue, thank you.
To all: It all lies in the apache/conf/extra/httpd-xampp.conf.
Find LoadFile "D:/www/php/php7ts.dll" and replace it with LoadFile "D:/www/php/php8ts.dll"
Find LoadModule php7_module "D:/www/php/php7apache2_4.dll" and replace it with LoadModule php_module "D:/www/php/php8apache2_4.dll" (note that there are 2 changes, one in the dll name, the other is php_module).
After restarting apache it works 🥳🥳🥳
A big thanks!!!
