mbstring library installed?

That wasn't a 'you need mbstring', that was a 'do you have it?' because the code goes through different paths depending on whether you have it or not. In theory it's supposed to load a compatibility layer if it is not installed... (but I wanted to check whether it's not detecting it properly, or it's not loading the layer properly)

No, mbstring wasnt enabled or installed, so on that basis it wasnt detecting that..

Just recompiling apache now with it. Had already starting compiling when you mentioned it.

was fine with that module installed. Interestingly though, it had succesfully created my admin user despite the error message.

Why are you recompiling Apache when it's a PHP module?

Ah, I know why this is. I'll fix it in the installer going forward.

It is interesting to note how many people have mbstring installed ;)
