If it is a hosted server, then you have to ask your host to install
it. If it is your own server then you need to do some reading,
probably starting from
http://php.net/manual/en/mbstring.installation.php

I used to have this problem with a host and they "considered my
request" and refused to install mbstring. I didn't have any problem
with the site, it worked fine without mbstring, although it was in
Greek. But eventually I changed host, for this and for other reasons.
