UTF-8 Encoding / Decoding

[darkmotives]

Hi, I just installed Chevereto on a new server running Ubuntu 16.04 and PHP 7.1 and when I extracted all the files in the zip, I get this error message:

• UTF-8 encode (utf8_encode) function is disabled in this server. This function must be enabled in your PHP configuration (php.ini) and/or you must add this missing function.
• UTF-8 decode (utf8_decode) function is disabled in this server. This function must be enabled in your PHP configuration (php.ini) and/or you must add this missing function.

I've tried going through my php.ini file but I can't find a setting called utf8_encode or utf8_decode or anything similar. Please let me know what to do.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you!

The error message is quite universal, UTF-8 functions are part of php-xml and you don't enable/disable those in php.ini.
