I downloaded the real_aes-8.x-2.2.zip file from the Real AES project page, unzipped and copied it to contrib module folder (/var/www/html/modules/contrib).
While trying to enable this module using drush en real_aes, I get below error:
Module real_aes doesn't meet the requirements to be enabled. [error] Please install the Defuse PHP-encryption library via Composer. See README.txt (Currently using Defuse PHP-Encryption[error] library version Not Installed)
So now I ran the command composer require defuse/php-encryption to install Defuse PHP-encryption. I could see that it is downloaded to the location /var/www/html/vendor.
After this, even though the Defuse PHP-encryption is downloaded, if I try to enable the Real AES module using Drush command and also tried Drupal module interface, it still throws the above error.
- Drupal version: 8.6.5
- PHP Version : 7.0.32
- Drush version: 8.1.18
Any help appreciated resolving this issue.
composer require drupal/real_aesand it will also get you the library. Otherwise ensure you download the correct version of the librarycomposer require defuse/php-encryption:^2.2. Flush cache and retry. Next thing: your Drush version is incompatible with Drupal 8, fix that. Next thing: Your Drupal version is out of date, fix that, too.composer require defuse/php-encryptionin the correct directory, in order to let Drupal find the library. Then, since you used Composer to add the library, you could as well add the module withcomposer require drupal/real_aesas @leymannx said.
