 * Just downloaded v3.3.1, unzipped it, copied it to Apache server dir=htdocs/myworkoutgroup/
   wp/, started the install.php and receive this:
 * Fatal error: Class ‘Gettext_Translations’ not found in C:\Program Files\Apache
   Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\myworkoutgroup\wp\wp-includes\pomo\mo.php
   on line 14
 * Found a topic for it and only fix is to re-download and try again. Did that and
   same result. Any other solutions?
 * Thank you.
 * EverettG.
 * Found something in the documentation that says the class is located in the file
   translations.php on line 135. Checked it and class GetText_Translations is there.
   Makes even less sense now. Help anyone?
 * Thanks.

 * Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately I have already redownloaded it and reinstalled
   it, as my original post mentioned. Still did not work. Any other suggestions?
 * Thanks.

 * Thanks for your reply. I am using Apache v2.2. Have tried several re-installs
   with no luck. I have found the Class in the appropriate file so the files seem
   to be correct. I am very confused. Any other suggestions.
 * Thank you

 * Oh by the way, my server is on Windows XP.

 * Hello again. I tried installing WordPress at the web site root folder instead
   of in a subfolder [site_root/wp/]. Guess what, same error message Fatal error:
   Class ‘Gettext_Translations’ not found in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\
   Apache2.2\htdocs\myworkoutgroup\wp-includes\pomo\mo.php on line 14
 * This looks like an install script problem to me. Does anyone have a possible 
   solution other than re-download and re-install? Anyone? I still can locate the
   Gettext_Transitions class in the transitions.php file in the same folder as mo.
   php which uses it. ??? Am I misunderstanding what I am seeing?
 * Just thought of something, is it possible that my path – C:\Program Files\Apache
   Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\myworkoutgroup\wp-includes\pomo\mo.php is
   too long and therefore cannot locate the appropriate file? Just a thought.
 * Apache Server v2.2 on Win XP, PHP v5.2.9-2, MySQL v5.0.81.
    Web sites are active[
   development, not live] on the Apache server and function properly. All use php
   pages and scripts, so php seems to be running properly. I also use MySql databases
   on all functioning web sites with no issues.
 * Thank you.
 * EverettG
