If you're on openacs.org, everything should now be fine. Otherwise, you need to move the entire directory tree to openacs.org:/web/openacs/www/repository, replacing what was already there.
This is automated on OpenACS.org by having a dedicated site just for building the repository, invoked with this shell script. Since the page circumvents security checks for ease of use, the entire site is limited to local requests. The script is called daily with a cron job.

+ How to Update the translations
+
+
+ Identify any new locales that have been created.
+ For each new locale, check the parameters, especially that
+ the locale is in the format [two-letter code for
+ language, lower-case]_[TWO-LETTER CODE FOR COUNTRY,
+ UPPER-CASE], and create a sql command. A
+ example sql command for creating a locale is:
+ insert into ad_locales
+ (locale, label, language, country, nls_language, nls_territory,
+ nls_charset, mime_charset, default_p, enabled_p)
+ values ('fa_IR', 'Farsi (IR)', 'fa', 'IR', 'FARSI', 'IRAN', 'AL24UTFFSS',
+ 'windows-1256', 't', 'f');
+ Put this command into the following four files. For the
+ upgrade files, the correct file name will depend on the
+ exact version.

-
- Update the translation server. (Approach 1: upgrade to the last release; approach 2: upgrade to head or to an alpha or beta release.) Use CVS up.
-
- This approach puts the translation server at risk. An alternate approach would be to create a whole new checkout on the appropriate branch (such as oacs-5-0), point that at the live production database, import keys (which is safe because keys on the translation server take precedence), then export keys back, and then commit. This gets the keys committed to the right branch without changing the code running on the production site. Updating the production site can then be a seperate exercise.

+ Make a backup of the production database. Restore it as a new database. For example, if upgrading from OpenACS 5.1.1, and the site name/database name is translate-511, create translate-512b1.

+
+ Check out the latest code on the release branch (e.g., oacs-5-1) as a new site, using the new site name (e.g., /var/lib/aolserver/translate-512b1. Copy over any local settings - usually, /etc/config.tcl and /etc/daemontools/run and modify appropriately. Also, copy over several translation-server-only files:
