    Transfering language file to a local copy of the forum

    Hi...

    I've installed a copy of the forum (3.6.0) on my local computer to be used as the development copy. i then tried to install the language file (Hebrew) into this forum but the encoding or something related to it has a problem

    the Hebrew language on the web forum is working fine but installed into the local copy i get all ????????? for Hebrew text

    i need some good advise on this since I'm at a lost with this one

    thanks

    Check that the database on both servers have the same collation.

        Yes.
        It's a bit hard to troubleshoot like this, but if you'd like to open a support ticket providing AdminCP, FTP and phpMyAdmin login details I'll gladly take a look at the new server.

          Thanks Colin, but the thing is... the server is on my own computer (XAMPP server) i set it up just so i can test things on it before i do it on the live forum which has no problems with Hebrew, it works fine on the web server.

          any suggestions giving that information into account?

            Then there's not much I can do except suggest that you compare the settings exactly between the two servers/forums.
