mbstring prob with phpMyAdmin

[hyperclock]

Hi,
everytime I login to phpMyAdmin the bottom shows:

Die PHP-Erweiterung "mbstring" wurde nicht gefunden, trotzdem jedoch scheinen Sie einen Mehrbyte-Zeichensatz zu verwenden. Ohne besagte Erweiterung ist phpMyAdmin nicht in der Lage Zeichenketten zu trennen, was zu unerwarteten Ergebnissen führen kann.

I'm using a dedicated server from STRATO, And did the install as far as I could using HOW TO for SuSE 9.3

the only thing I couldn't do was the installation. things I did different are:
1) instead of ::server1.example.com :: i did my strato server name.
2) added zlib zlib-devel postfix after the apt-get update.
3) did dist-update
4) turned SuSe Firewall off
the rest was done according to the HOW TO.

everything else works VERY WELL :D

[till]

Is this error from the ISPConfig phpMyadmin package?

[hyperclock]

yes it is I'm using PHPMyAdmin 2.6.3-pl1

[hyperclock]

Still having probs with this. Is there some I can change in the config file of phpmyadmin?

Nothing to worry about, you can ignore the warning. Otherwise install the 2.6.1-RC1 phpMyAdmin package ( http://www.ispconfig.org/downloads/phpmyadmin-2.6.1-rc1.pkg ), it doesn't have this warning.

Ok, thanx!!! :)

Hi,
I am new and this it is my first message. :)
(I do not know much English, it attempt with http://translate.google.com)

I also have the same problem. :(

:rolleyes: I believe that the error must to that the PHP5 that installs the ISPConfig does not come compiled with the extension php-mbstring.

Some suggestion of how adding it? :confused:

Greetings.

To change the compile settings for the PHP, edit the configure line for PHP in the script compile_aps/compile in the install_ispconfig folder before installing ISPConfig.

You're right, i totally forgot that we already changed it to PHP5. :cool:

Ok, thanks for its answer.

In: http://www.ispconfig.org/manual_installation.htm
The installer will now compile an Apache with PHP5 that will run on port 81 and is needed by the ISPConfig system itself. It will not interfere with your existing Apache installation so you can go on unworried.

If one adjusts so that it uses PHP4, it will use the installation that is installed in our distribution, or will do a new one that listens by port 81?

I ask this, because in the PHP4 of my distribution (Mke 10,2) yes I have installed php-mbstring.

[till]

ISPConfig can not use the PHP that is installed on your system for the services on port 81.

The only solution i see is to change the compile settings as i described above and add an statement like "--enable-mbstring=all". Make shure you have an mbstring devel package installed on your server.
