I keep receiving this error on step 4 of the installation. I re did the whole installation thinking I did something wrong and I keep getting this error. The pages shows like this:

Creating database tables...
Creating table: 'categories'...
Creating table: 'comments'...
Creating table: 'friends'...
Creating table: 'links'...
Creating table: 'trackbacks'...
Creating table: 'users'...
Creating table: 'tags'...
Creating table: 'votes'...
Creating table: 'pageviews'....
Creating table: 'config'....
Creating table: 'messages'....
Creating table: 'modules'....
Creating table: 'formulas'....
Creating table: 'Saved Links'....
Creating table: 'Misc Data'....
Creating table: 'Totals'....
Creating 'god' user...
Inserting default categories...
Inserting default modules...
Inserting default formulas...
Inserting default 'totals' data...
Inserting default 'config' data...

Tables were created successfully!

Fatal error: String functions are overloaded by mbstring in /home/user/public_html/libs/utf8/utf8.php on line 39

Can someone please explain to me what this error means? Thank you

are you on a shared hosting or dedicated if on shared:

try editing your .htaccess file and add the following if its not there:
php_value mbstring.func_overload 0

if its on dedicated try changing your php.ini:
mbstring.func_overload = 7
to
mbstring.func_overload = 0

I think the previous time I had issue with it was when I was on PHP 5.2.5 and most of my other script too were not functioning thus I guess 5.2.5 has a problem and be warn that the .htaccess alternative may impact your neighbour

A previous post covering this subject: http://forums.pligg.com/installation...line-39-a.html

This problem is caused by a setting in your php.ini file, htaccess might be able to overwrite the settings as a patch if you are unable to edit php.ini directly. Add the following code to your .htaccess file in the site root.

Code:
  php_value mbstring.func_overload 0
