# yum install php-mbstring
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security
Setting up Install Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Anyone can tell me how I can install mbstring ??

My PHP version : PHP 5.4.35 (cli) (built: Nov 14 2014 07:04:10) on Centos 6.6

Thank you in advance...

To search the right MB-String for your PHP version try this command:

sudo yum list | egrep 'php' | grep 50

Change (50) by the specific version of PHP you do have installed in your server,this command will show you all the packages related to you PHP version.
This command will show :

 ea-php50-php-mbstring.x86_64

Now you can install the version compatible with your system.I hope it will works for you.

yum install php-mbstring --enablerepo=remi

I installed php-mbstring using remi with this command. After running that, Restarting Apache service is required.
