can't get translations to update

Hello,
When trying to set my language to Nederlands (dutch) and pressing the update button, all I get is a window showing: scanning files.. The progress bar moves to about 15%, and then stops for ever. On my server I see no activity, and the logs show no information. I have tried this yesterday and today, in case the translation servers were down.

Anything I can do or try?

I'm using:
apache 2.2.11
php 5.2.10
gallery3 as pulled yesterday (today there were no updates so far)

Thanks for nay answer.

Kind regards, Henk.

Any debug info in your gallery3/var/logs files? If not, try using Wireshark (or tcpdump, tcpflow, ethereal, etc) to watch the TCP traffic and you'll probably see an HTML file with an error go by (which the dialog is eating and not displaying). If you can post that here, we can fix it.

No.

I attach copy of my tcp stream.

That's pretty odd. I grepped the JSON responses out of the stream and they are:

{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":10,"status":"Scanning files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":15,"status":"Scanning files: scanned 34 files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":15,"status":"Finding files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":10,"status":"Scanning files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":18,"status":"Scanning files: scanned 52 files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":18,"status":"Finding files","done":0}}

{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":18,"status":"Finding files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":10,"status":"Scanning files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":18,"status":"Scanning files: scanned 52 files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":18,"status":"Finding files","done":0}}
{"result":"in_progress","task":{"percent_complete":10,"status":"Scanning files","done":0}}

It's weird that the percent_complete is bouncing aronud like that. I thought maybe you ran the task multiple times, but the timestamps are very tightly clustered. I'm guessing this is a bug I can't reproduce it, though. Are you savvy enough to step through the update_l10n() function in modules/gallery/helpers/gallery_task.php to see if you can figure out what's going wrong? If not, are you willing to share ssh access with me so that I can try debugging it?

I think that this php library have enabled by default.

If G3 had to check every single little nuance of every server/php configuration, there would be 1000s of lines of code just for the installer and there would be little or no code written for the rest of the application.
Some checks are done now, but we are aiming for the 80% that most have.

If php dies though a fatal error I don't think that we can detect that other than looking at the servers error log.

Hmm? This 500 error is reported back to gallery by apache, so in contrast to a kernel pannic or a sudden death of php, gallery could be aware of a problem occurring, however it chooses to silently ignore it.
My problem is solved now, so I don't care if the installer checks for the tokenizer functions or not, however since they look to be off on gentoo systems by default, a check, a note in a README or some other form of notice could help avoid answering questions like mine.

Kind regards, and thanks for what looks like becoming a wonderful product.

Henk,

Feel free to add a page to to the codex or the G3 faq. The docs are for users like you by users like you.
Perhaps a gentoo specific page would help others? I don't have any experience with that so perhaps you can help?

The README never gets read anyway.

I don't see any image you're referring to. If you're talking about the text on the screen you can make it larger in your browser or change the resolution of your monitor. That FAQ you're referring to is:

Hi Henk, I understand what you're talking about now. You tried to create an account and update the FAQ and got one of those oh so friendly captcha images. I hate those things.

I've updated the FAQ, let me know if the change I made is correct:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:FAQ#Strange_things_just_don.27t_seem_to_work

I'll look into what's being used there for the captcha and see if it can't get swapped out with something more friendly and accessible. The reCaptha project has a text option, it's better, but still leaves much to be desired.
