Thanks Gosha,

The php.ini I am editing is in the same directory as the php executable
phpinfo.php isn't mbstring and I'm getting the error message in the log:

Unknown PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library
'E:\PHP\ext\php_mbstring.dll' - The specified module could not be found.

The actual path to the file is: E:\PHP\ext\php_mbstring.dll and matches
the path specified in php.ini.


I downloaded the PECL 5.2.4 Win32 binaries archive and extracted the
files to E:\PHP\ext but it doesn't contain php_mbstring.dll, so I copied
it from elsewhere (down loaded in 2003). php finds other dll files in
the same directory, so perhaps it is incompatible or corrupted. If so
where would I download a valid file? (php.net seems to say that all the
extensions are in the PECL download!)

(BTW I'm having the same problem with php_gd2.dll)
