phpMyAdmin - Error | The mbstring extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Question

I am using Ubuntu OS 14.04 LTS. After I run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade(run this command because I unable to download and update it when the os ask me) I cannot open phpmyadmin again. Before that I can open it normally.

I am using PHP Version 7.0.4-5, phpmyadmin 4.5.5.1 With phpmyadmin I downloaded it from https://www.phpmyadmin.net/ and then move to /var/www/html.

I have enabled

extension=php_mbstring.dll
extension=php_exif.dll     
extension=php_mysqli.dll

and restart apache2 still not work. And when I run php-m and phpinfo() also cannot find mbstring.

Please help solve this problem. Really thankful for help me.
