   hello, I have this problem.
   My WP 2.3.1 was working fine, but after provider upgraded his server, the translation using .mo file now don't work.

   Don't you know, what is necessary on server side to make the translation work again? I have found that translation works through l10n.php file, but that's all I know about that problem

   WP is using gettext for localization.
   See details here:

   OK thanks, but webhosting seems to have gettext installed.

   I know it's weird, also provider himself do not know why it is not working correctly.

   server has: Apache/2.2.6 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.6  DAV/2 PHP/5.2.5

   the server has 64bit system; which is mentioned here as possible problem: http://source.ibiblio.org/trac/lyceum/ticket/652
   http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wp-trac/2007-June/012844.html

   but gettext.php in (/wp-includes) seems to have this problem already solved; as mentioned in above tracs

   SOLVED: I tried to remove code that was supposed to solve problem with 64bit system, and IT WORKS

   all I had to do, was this code:
   

   if ($magic == ($MAGIC1 & 0xFFFFFFFF) || $magic == ($MAGIC3 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) { // to make sure it works for 64-bit platforms
   			$this->BYTEORDER = 0;
   		} elseif ($magic == ($MAGIC2 & 0xFFFFFFFF)) {

   change to this:
   

   if ($magic == $MAGIC1 || $magic == $MAGIC3 ) { // to make sure it works for 64-bit platforms
   			$this->BYTEORDER = 0;
   		} elseif ($magic == $MAGIC2) {

   i.e. remove hack that was made to make it compatible with 64bit systems, strange
