Mb_internal_encoding () not available although configured?

Question

I have a problem with mbstring in my Apache2.2 / Win7 / PHP5.3 setup, although I think it is configured correctly in my php.ini:

extension_dir = "ext"
extension=php_mbstring.dll

I get the following:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in ...

I did a manual installation (by book) using VC6.zip. I am running out of ideas on what to try.

Oh shit! PHP did not understand the relative path. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I am doing a manual installation ...

Solution in php.ini:

extension_dir = "c:\RnD\PHP\ext"
