After gem install gettext, I created the po/cs po/en po/de directories  
and tried to create po files. But, with this code in rakefile

require ‘gettext/utils’  
desc “Update pot/po files.”  
task :updatepo do

GetText.update\_pofiles(“semantickyweb2”,  
Dir.glob("{app,lib,bin}/\*\*/\*.{rb,rhtml}"), “semantickyweb2 1.0.0”)  
end

desc “Create mo-files”  
task :makemo do  
require ‘gettext/utils’  
GetText.create\_mofiles(true)

# GetText.create\_mofiles(true, “po”, “locale”) # This is for "Ruby on

Rails".  
end

I got only this message:

Rake aborted!  
Undefined method ‘untranslate\_all?’ for Action::Class

Does somebody know what to do with that?

You probably didn’t add “require ‘gettext/rails’” in your Rails app.
