Hello Phil,

Please, contact your hosting provider and check if the mbstring extension for PHP is installed on their server.

If you own the server check this link:

I've had this problem again .I never did get it working. My hosting company says the mbstring extension for PHP is installed . Any suggestions.
Thanks
