Why does the installed mbstring not work in PMA?

Question

PHP

Goodnight! An error occurred while installing phpMyAdmin. I want to note that at first I installed from the repositories, but the error arose even then, after I installed it manually, and only then came to you.

The server has php7 installed, mbstring for php7 is also installed, everything is in phpinfo(), but PMA does not believe in this fact and swears. On the forums they write that mgstring is needed, but it is there!

Mistake:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function __() in /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/sanitizing.lib.php:135 Stack trace: #0 /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/ libraries/Message.php(586): PMA_sanitize('session_start()...', false, true) #1 /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/Message.php(650): PMA\libraries\ Message::decodeBB('session_start()...') #2 /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/Error.php(167): PMA\libraries\Message->getMessage() #3 /home /www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/ErrorHandler.php(157): PMA\libraries\Error->getHash() #4 /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/ErrorHandler.php(121): PMA\libraries\ErrorHandler->addError('session_start()...', 2, '/home/www/_serv...', 101, true) #5 [internal function]: PMA\libraries\ErrorHandler-> handleError(2, 'session_start()...', '/home/www/_serv...', 101, Array) #6 /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/session.inc.php(101): session_start( ) #7 /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/common.inc.php(266): require('/home/www/_ in /home/www/_server/pma/public_html/libraries/sanitizing. lib.php on line 135

Help, good people :-)

Check session.save_path for php writability, since sessions are mentioned in the trace here.
