Laravel - Call to undefined function mb_strcut() - Solved

Then send an email then I found "Call to undefined function mb_strcut()" issue with my application. I was thinking it will be because of laravel old version. Then I figure out what was the issue and how to resolve it.

I have the PHP 8.1 version and I need to install mbstring extension. I quickly check mbstring extension is there on my system or not by using the below command:

php -m | grep mbstring

Nothing found on above command then we need to install mbstring by following version vise solution:
