Sometimes I found myself tired of answering the boring questions about the installations of the blogging tools or online applications such as WordPress or pLog. I am the one to translate such applications into Traditional Mandarin Chinese and I hope that I can share my experience and passions to help the other users who are familiar with Traditional Chinese to have their own place to write in text, to share their pictures, to express their self in any possible ways and so on, yes that is what I hope, and I intend to do so. However, my feeling of getting tired is keeping on growing stronger and stronger.
Well, the most the made me feel tired is that some of the questions are not even a question. For instance, someone asked that while he/she was installing pLog, there was an error message saying: ‘the wizard.php script has to be removed after the installation process. Please remove it first to continue.
‘ In such a situation, what should he/she do? Well, what you need to do is to delete the wizard.php script as what the message said. Another one said, he/she encountered a MySQL error: ‘mysql_pconnect(): Access denied for user
‘, what does that mean? Well, that just means that the username and password you input to access the database were denied, just verify your username and password and retry, that’s all. Such questions are totally not even a question, you just know the answers, and they are just in your eyes, in the error messages. If you read the error messages, you will know what’s your next step. Why don’t you just keep your eyes on the messages for a minute?
Maybe the reason is that the error messages are all in English, all the users would like to skip reading the messages, and just go to ask some one as me, to ask some one as me to teach them such English vocabularies, instead of using the resource such as free dictionaries (StarDict, Dojam, etc) or online translating service (AltaVista, SysTran, etc) that can help them to understand where the error transpired . They may prefer and are good to save their time but to waste the others’. Well, read the error messages, dude, that won’t spent too much of your time at all.
