What is the PHP mbstring extension, and what is the best way to install it on Ubuntu 14.04? Ubuntu; Community; Ask! How to install PHP `mbstring` extension in Ubuntu? Ask Question. This is correct for Debian Stretch. No need to add the version number. There will be many more extensions listed in the php -m output than are installed as add-on packages in Debian, because there are lots of default extensions built into PHP as well as the ones you can install afterwards. Installing PHP extension mbstring in PHP 5.6 CentOS 6.8. I tried to install mbstring extension. When I execute. Sudo yum install php-mbstring.
I have a trouble using functions of mb-string extension in PHP.It is working well in Windows, but when I migrate to Linux server, it fails with error message. ' Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in...'.I figured out that I need to install mb-string extension, and it was pretty simple.
But the problem is that although I installed mbstring extension, that error still occurs.I have tried php_info to check if the extension is installed, but I can't find mbstring on that list, even though if I run yum install php-mbstring again, it says 'already installed, nothing to do'.Any ideas? Please help.
