Hello - I have followed all the instructions to get to the point where I have to upgrade the database using ojs/index.php/index/install. At this point, I get these errors on the install page. What do I do? I cannot proceed with the upgrade! I am running Php 7.

Can anyone help with this issue? The install page is blank and we are at an impasse.
I would expect to see another error message, either a PHP Error or PHP Fatal. Do you perhaps see one of these messages in the PHP error log, if not on the page itself?
Here is the error log. Please see the Fatal Error with Smarty and kindly advise.

You will need to enable multibyte string support for PHP. In you are managing your own dedicated server, this would be done by a command like yum install php-mbstring or similar.
If you are hosted, check with your system administrator or hosting provider on adding the “mbstring” module to PHP.
