Blank page in Administrator when editing category

I upgraded from the pre-release and everything went well. However when I try to edit a setting in a category, I get a blank page in Administrator. The URL shows as www.mydomain.com/administrator/index.php. When I go back I can see that the change has been saved but it is annoying.
The same thing happens if I try to save a new category. It saves but redirects to a blank page.

Same issue here. After following upgrade procedures I get php errors when i try and save categories or items. I haven't attempted to save any other type. Here's some errors:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in /home/antimttr/public_html/blah/administrator/components/com_k2/tables/k2item.php on line 71, referer: blah.antimttr.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&cid=10

I also uninstalled and re-installed the component. I am having no issues creating new items or categories though.
Richard Pearce said:I figured this might have something to do with the upgrade. And as I didn't have much in my database, I thought I would try to uninstall everything and start again with the full version. When I did that, I got the same problem when creating a new category.
Restoring my pre-release backup now.

K2 is working with a lot of other components and modules with dependencies on each other and all it takes is for something else to no agree with it to cause issues. I am finding that many issues relating to K2 is usually coming for other components, modules and/or template overrides.
I hope that this helps you in finding out what is causing your issue in your Joomla environment.

I'm having the same problem of "blank page" after a new category is added.
however, after clicking on "save" or "apply" or "save and new" the category is not created and the blank page is displayed.
Mine is a new joomla installation created ad-hoc to try K2, so there're no templates or thirdy parts components.
I investigated and found out that the problem is: (php log file)
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in [my server folder]\administrator\components\com_k2\tables\k2category.php on line 46
any solution for this? thank you,
Luigi

Hi. A blank page indicated a php error. Please turn on error reporting through Joomla configuration to see what's the error. Now, to everyone getting mb_internal_encoding() fatal error you have to enable php's mutlibyte string functions.
