Is anyone else getting this error?

This error is coming from the wxWidgets library which I cant find on svn. Can someone look into this it should take no longer than 3 minutes to find the bug

That is wxWidgets' internationalization machinery complaining about... something (the catalog is probably the list of english strings -> other language strings).

As for fixing it:  "Not It!"   (I don't know nothing about wxWidgets internationalizations stuff)

Did you build this yourself from source?

Its been downloaded from bitcoin.org...
h**p://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/project/bitcoin/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.3.19/bitcoin-0.3.19-win32-setup.exe

It was not build up myself.

If you can't do it yourself, and want it done for free, how about a "please" somewhere in  there, and perhaps a little less demanding, impatient tone, regarding how long you think it should take... ;)

this is not my problem I was just advocating for the person who was having a problem.

I did the 3 minutes of research, and the answer is that wxWidgets is upset about the locale of the machine. dishwara should evaluate their regional/language settings in windows 7 and make sure they are set correctly. Try changing to english/us and run again, and see if the problem goes away.
