Installation issues any version

[zemplen]

I receive this message when installing (localhost...index.php): The website encountered an error while retrieving CRM Open Source Business & Social CRM Software - SugarCRM. This occurs with each version that I attempt to install.

Is it possible that the apache server has not the right to access the SugarCRM files? Check the file system settings in the windows explorer.

I found an old version of SugarCrm and on load I got this message
Minimum Php version required is 5.1.0. Recommended Php version is 5.2.x. for version SugarCE-Full-5.2.0e

phpMyAdmin says The mysqli extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration.

php.ini
extension_dir="J:\php\php\ext\"
extension="php_mysql.dll"
extension="php_mysqli.dll"

$pwd
/cygdrive/j/php/php/ext

$ls *mysql*.dll
php_mysql.dll php_mysqli.dll php_pdo_mysql.dll

I there some kind of diagnostic that I can run?

recreated php.ini and now I am able to run until I get "No data support" and "mbstring not enabled" I don't have a clue.
