Something Went Wrong, or Resource Object Not Found

If you receive an error stating something went wrong (or the equivalent in your local language), there may have been a problem with the distribution of your language-specific resource files. This error isn't logged to the event log, as it's a SharePoint error, which is triggered before our software starts.

To get more information about the error, temporarily change the `CallStack` attribute in the `SafeMode` element in the web.config file to `True`. If a message similar to the following is displayed after refreshing the page, then you need to force SharePoint to redistribute the resource files.
