えなろぐis up ! The installation took me 3 hours.
This is not WordPress’s fault. Their 5 minute installation claim is true.
What took me so long was because I wanted to localize WordPress to use Japanese.
At first, I tried WordPress Me but that failed because my Web Host didn’t configure PHP with mbstring. So I went back to using the “mo” approach but hit a wall trying to find the mo files. The link (http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress-i18n/) on the Codex pointed me to a Subversion repository with no explanation of what files to pick up.
Finally, I decided to hunt around in WordPress Me for the mo files. Bless me ! The mo files were in the distribution. I quickly copied it and the installation went rather smoothly…..the install kept wanting to use UTF-8 when the mo files I got were encoded in EUC-JP. However, a quick change to the settings fixed that after I installed successfully.
So, here I am. 3 hours later. First post. I am happy !! What i’d do for my lovely wife.
