For debugging you can also try to "run" the file with PHP. This should
not give any output if the file is ok but might give a hint for

Known Problems
--------------
Red uses the language setting of the visitors browser to determain the
language for the UI. Most of the time this works, but there are some known
quirks.
One is that some browsers, like Safari, do the setting to "de-de" but Red
only has a "de" localisation. A workaround would be to add a symbolic link
from
$Red/view/de-de
pointing to
$Red/view/de

* the early translations are based on the friendica translations, if you
some rough translations please let us know or fix them at Transifex.
