PHP Laravel Mcrypt PHP extension required [duplicate]

Question

I am new to PHP Laravel.

When I type like below in the command line:

myprofile@i3-1:/opt/lampp/htdocs/laravel-4.2.11$ php artisan generate:controller UsersController

I get the below error.

Mcrypt PHP extension required.

Later I tried to troubleshoot.
Then I typed the below command.

myprofile@i3-1:/opt/lampp/htdocs/laravel-4.2.11$ sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt

The response I got:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
php5-mcrypt is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 662 not upgraded.

I again typed below:

myprofile@i3-1:/opt/lampp/htdocs/laravel-4.2.11$ php artisan generate:controller UsersController

I am unable to proceed further.
Can anybody please help me?
