Question

The mbstring extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration

I have installed LAMP on Fedora following this tutorial with some change, The installation finished with no problem. But when I tried to access http://localhost/phpmyadmin, this error notify appear. I have already search on google and try all option on the thread linked above.

I changed php.ini configuration:

extension=mbstring.so

where the extension dir is like this

extension_dir = "/usr/lib64/php/modules"

This are the Extensions on /usr/lib64/php/modules

From this article, I found out that we need restart php-fpm, this solution not mentioned on other tutorial/thread that I have been read.

just run:

systemctl restart php-fpm
