Report PDF download error

Situation
Describe your problem here
When I had version 5.0.0, I could download reports in PDF. This was very convenient.
I now have 7.0.0. When I click “Report” on the Dashboard, and then click “Download PDF” The tab label goes from “Patient Report” to “Uknown” and I do not get my report in PDF. I think there is something that I have not activated in Globals. Can anyone give me a hint?
OpenEMR Version
I’m using OpenEMR version 7.0.0.
Browser:
I’m using: Firefox.

Operating System
I’m using: Ubuntu

Is php missing mbstring?

Try
php -m | grep mbstring

If not found,
sudo apt install php-mbstring
sudo systemctl restart apache2

Well. Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, reloading MB-String did not help. hmmmmm.

hi @docrovner, is there a new error in the php log or the same?

Thanks
