Hello everybody
I ran into a problem and would need some help
I want to install vb for a new site.. using multiple languages.
Unfortunately i have to be on a windows server (different reasons)
using mysql and apache 2.2
I want to install following language packs:
English (master) .. german, french, spanish, russian and chinese
I set to utf8 in the config file before installing vb (on my localhost)
then I save the language xml in utf8
then i try to install vbulletin.. everything is ok.. until importing the phrases..
then i get a mysql error:
_________
If I do not change anything.. do a normal install.. in english and import the chinese xml for examlpe (found here... not as master language) then it works fine.. (i get the correct chinese characters displayed on the board)
but.. in the language selector.. AND in ALL other dropdowns i only get weird characters !!!!
here is my question:
do I only set the config.php and save language.xmls in utf8 before installing?
or do I have to do something else? on apache or/and mysql or/and php?
help would be very apreciated, thank you
Luciano
