Howdy,

You mentioned having two PHP versions installed, 5.3 and 5.4.

The PHP 5.4 version provided in the SCL repository doesn't provide the mbstring module.

However, the php-mbstring package is provided by CentOS for PHP 5.3. You can install that by running the command "yum install php-mbstring".

Would that work for you?

you can install php54-php-mbstring from webmin/system/Software Packages Package from YUM - php54-php-mbstring will execute "yum install php54-php-mbstring"

that will work for PHP 5.4 If you want it working for PHP 5.3 "yum install php-mbstring"
