Migration Failure

Post by chrisw »

Hello all - we are migrating our mantisbt implementation to a new server. Both new and old servers are running the same PHP, Apache and MySQL version.

I copied the mantis directory to the new server
I copied the data to the new server
I modified the config_inc.php file with new passwords and directories.
I set permissions and ownership of the new Mantis directory to match that on the old server.
I have verified the db user and password are correct (got an access denied error prior to this issue)

I am getting the following PHP error when I run the new MantisBT:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in /apps/www/html/tools/mantisbt-2.4.0/core/database_api.php on line 1280
Any ideas?
