    I had a problem on a server where striper would crash the server resulting in http 500 when activated even on new WordPress install. Turns out that the AWS yum php package doesn’t have php-mbstring and this plugin requires it (all my other plugins don’t).

    First check if php-mbstring is installed by typing “php -m”.
    Then install it by typing “sudo yum install php56-mbstring” or latest php ver if php is beyond 5.6.
    Then restart the service by typing “sudo service httpd restart”

    Problem solved.

    Hi,

    I’m having this issue and would like to try your method.

    Where do I go to check for the php-mbstring? In the PHPmyAdmin or FTP?

    You’ll have to use Putty / SSH to connect to your server and run the commands. I don’t think PHPmyadmin lets you install it. Whether or not it’s installed should be listed under your phpinfo.php page.
