How to install PHP mbstring on CentOS 6.2

do the following:

sudo nano /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

under the section updates, comment out the mirrorlist line (put a # in front of the line), then on a new line write:

baseurl=http://centos.intergenia.de/$releasever/updates/$basearch/

now try:

yum install php-mbstring

(afterwards you’ll probably want to uncomment the mirrorlist and comment out the baseurl)
