Hi All

I get the following error when trying in discharging the zipped files for UI
and Help (sorry for the Italian version):

--start--
Errore del server

Il server ha avuto seri problemi mentre eseguiva la richiesta. Stiamo
istruendo le nostre scimmie ammaestrate per risolvere il problema.
--end--

Does anyone experience the same problem?

Ciao

BTW, the error occurs only for the UI zip file.

even more specifically: only for master UI

Yep, would have been a problem for everyone - cause was removal of
two pot files (dictionaries/es.pot and dictionaries/pt_PT.pot) - those
were removed from the templates, but the files were not removed from
the translations, but zip-export doesn't like that, and expects the
pot to be present/fails otherwise.

Solution was simple: I also removed the two files from the translations.
(note however that the removal of strings likely is an accident, and
that they'll reappear again - the source files had their language
changed from "en-US" to just "en" and that caused the
string-extraction to skip them.

Thank you Christian, now everything is ok
