 In this project I will try to give specific instructions to install and run a project with pootle. And to handle with a translation of the properties files of a java project into various languages. Those who haven't to deal with a thing like that probably will think that there is no real need for an application for that. Hehe..
+==== Software you will need ====
+You have to have installed in your system:
+  * Mysql
+  * Python
+  * Apache
 ==== Download the neccessary packages ====
-[[http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootle/installation]]
+Look into the installation manual the neccesary packages for install pootle:
+[[http://translate.readthedocs.org/projects/pootle/en/latest/server/installation.html]]
+==== Install Python easy install ====
+It eases many tasks of installing. Probably you can delete it afterwards if you want to strenghth your security.
+<code>
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
+</code>
+==== Install Django ====
+First install Django, because Pootle requires it. You can download it from the project website, https://www.djangoproject.com/
+<code shell>
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ tar -xzf Django-1.3.1.tar.gz
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ cd Django-1.3.1/
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas/Django-1.3.1$ sudo python setup.py install
+</code>
+==== Install translate-toolkit ====
+<code shell>
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ tar -xjf translate-toolkit-1.9.0.tar.bz2
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ cd translate-toolkit-1.9.0/
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas/translate-toolkit-1.9.0$ sudo python setup.py install
+</code>
+==== Install lxml ====
+After some seconds, you are ready to install the second package, lxml. This package is now(11/24/2012) available at [[http://pypi.python.org/pypi/lxml/]]
+<code shell>
+root@rluna-VirtualBox:~# tar -xzf lxml-3.0.1.tar.gz
+root@rluna-VirtualBox:~# sudo python setup.py install
+</code>
+==== Install pootle ====
+<code shell>
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ tar -xjf Pootle-2.1.6.tar.bz2
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas$ cd Pootle-2.1.6/
+rluna@rluna-VirtualBox:~/Descargas/Pootle-2.1.6$ sudo python setup.py install
+</code>
+==== Install south ====
+You can easily install south by issuing the command:
+<code shell>
+apt-get install python-django-south
+</code>
+At least in Ubuntu it works!
+==== Problem found: No such file or directory ''/usr/share/pootle/mo'' ====
+It appears that when you are installing in Ubuntu, pootle doesn't follow the usual path for
+installing itself; instead of using ''/usr/share/pootle'', it installs under ''/usr/local/share/pootle'',
+hence it fails when running issuing this error:
+<code>
+OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/share/pootle/mo'
+</code>
+The easiest way to fix this is to cheat Pootle, installing a symbolic link to the
+proper directory:
+<code>
+root@rluna-VirtualBox:/usr/local/share# ln -s /usr/local/share/pootle /usr/share/pootle
+</code>
+Ah!!! Thanks to [[http://serverfault.com/questions/247333/how-to-setup-pootle-tranlation-server-on-ubuntu]]
+who gave me the solution for this nasty error!!!!
+==== Finishing ====
+And that's it: you only have to point to ''http://localhost:8080'' to reach your own
+copy of pootle.
