t3lib_div::generateRandomBytes() is bad and buggy
0%
Description
I just try to install the new indroduction version of TYPO3 on my server. On step two I get following warning:
Fatal error: mcrypt_create_iv(): Could not gather sufficient random data in C:\Programme\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\introductionpackage-4.4.2\t3lib\class.t3lib_div.php on line 1597
The dropdown-box for "Driver" is empty.
I'm using PHP 5.3.3
I found a page where Marcus Krause and Helmut Hummel have already tried to fix that problem:
http://github.com/typo3/typo3v4core/commit/00ce0fe45aa46b62e8aa499912c9e36483185737
But on this site you can read, that the code was not perfect:

Have a look at following entry: [2010-08-03 16:11 UTC] pajoye@php.net

I get the error only when I have restarted my Apacheserver. When I press F5 in the webbrowser (same page) the warning is gone. After restarting Apache I get the same warning again.

Maybe this is an important note.:
I work on a windows xp machine with Apache, PHP, MySQL and OpenSSL. NOT Linux and NOT a WAMP-Server based on apachefriends.
