Error after change PHP version on CPanel

[Adriano Faria]

I changed from 7.1 to 7.3 and now I got:

Quote

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function IPS\mb_internal_encoding() in /home2/sosin147/public_html/ips4/init.php:535 Stack trace: #0 /home2/sosin147/public_html/ips4/init.php(1511): IPS\IPS::init() #1 /home2/sosin147/public_html/ips4/index.php(12): require_once('/home2/sosin147...') #2 {main} thrown in /home2/sosin147/public_html/ips4/init.php on line 535

The error is in the mb_internal_encoding.

	public static function init()
	{
		/* Set timezone */
		date_default_timezone_set( 'UTC' );

		/* Set default MB internal encoding */
		mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8');

Even going back to 7.1 the error persists.

Is there anything I can do or is this a host thing?

Thank you.

You're missing the mbstring extension in PHP, so your host will need to install it.
