I did the quickstart installation and when I clicked on ‘read more’ in any of news under ‘what’s new here’ block – it produces several lines of error like this…

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /home3/mywebsite/public_html/main/libraries/joomla/application/pathway.php on line 209

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /home3/mywebsite/public_html/main/libraries/joomla/application/pathway.php on line 209

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /home3/mywebsite/public_html/main/libraries/joomla/application/pathway.php on line 209

the above error lines are repeated around 200 times (couldn’t count)

and then comes the article at the bottom.

can somebody please help.

Is your host using PHP4? This reminds me of a message I got using VirtueMart that got fixed when I switched to a PHP 5 server. Although I had found a quick workaround by googling it i opted to switch to a serious provider.
You can check your php version if you turn on a statistic module.

I might be totally of track though… 🙂

Dear drb,

If you look at the path of error, it is very obvious that it is a Joomla problem, copy pasting of error (sans your hosting paths), into google could have helped you faster.

anyways, the solution is here >> http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=1916553#p1916553

It is because of your php version. Follow the above link and look for the solution.

I fixed mine yesterday, using the solution as above.

Regards

Arvind
