[Solved] Problem with discussions in Vanilla 2.2.3.4 (Multi-Byte Encoding)*

R_J

I've just downloaded the current master from GitHub. Everything runs fine, except for one thing.
The only thing that doesn't work is viewing discussions. clicking on http://localhost/v2234/discussion/1/bam-you-ve-got-a-sweet-forum#latest just sends back a 500 Internal Server Error.

Has anybody experienced this error before?

You'll probably want to add $Configuration['Debug'] = TRUE; to your config file to check out what's causing the internal server error. Feel free to post your results so we can take a look at them and hopefully get it sorted out :-)

Seems like a problem of my server: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/179153#Comment_179153

TADAA!! Problem solved by uncommenting extension=php_mbstring.dll from php.ini :-)

Thanks for the debug tip!

I got the same error. Solved.

Problem: I did not have the mbstring module for php. To know if you have the module type the command line: php -m.

Solution: install mbstring module: http://www.knowledgebase-script.com/kb/article/how-to-enable-mbstring-in-php-46.html
