asked a question

I am trying to run Askbot on Bluehost and to translate it to Hebrew. Everything works perfect most of the time. However, when I try to translate several specific strings in the .po file I get the following error (given by the Apache server - I wasn't able to reproduce it any other way):

************************
*                      *
*   Askbot self-test   *
*                      *
************************


Your output encoding is not UTF-8, there may be issues with the software when anything is printed to the terminal or log files.

Two strings that cause the error:

"What kinds of questions can I ask here?"

"Did not find what you were looking for?"

It doesn't matter what I translate them to - even "test" (in English) causes the error. I guess that the question mark is important here, but some strings that contain question marks have been successfully translated, such as

"What should \"unanswered question\" mean?"

"Are tags required?"

Even if there is no immediate solution I'll be happy to hear ideas on how to debug this. I'm a newbie to Askbot and Django in general so there might be an easy way I'm missing (for example, how can I activate this "self-test" from the command line?).

"must be owner of database" error while installing on bluehost

I am attempting to install askbot on bluehost by following the standard instructions. On my home computer all went well. On bluehost I created a psql database "johndoene_ask" and user "johndoene_user" associated with that database. My login username on bluehost is "johndoene".

I get this error:

johndoene@johndoe.net [~/public_html/ask]# python27 manage.py migrate
