Can't select languages

Hi all,
since approx. one year I got responsibility to maintain egw on an ubuntu server. Later I changed to SUSE 11.2 and made an update to egw 1.6. Almost everything did work fine. Yesterday I made the update to ewg 1.8.

Since the beginning I did struggle with the obvious inability to select different languages. I did install german, french and english language but any attempt to select one of the installed languages by means of preferences did not work as no one of the languages was offered to select. I’ve only the option to select “Use default”. I did read all messages of this board associated with “language” and found a posting that possibly the table ewg_languages might be empty. I checked this using phpMyAdmin and indeed I found an empty table. I filled the table manually with the three entries en - english, de - deutsch and fr - francais but no success. Regarding language installtations I did select the uft-8 character set.

One more strange thing: if i use the admin site configuration to select “yes” at the parameter “Should the login page include a language selectbox” I get a selectbox but with the two options “yes” and “no”.

I hope that someone could help me out.

Best regards
Bernhard

Thanks for the info, selecting the language was kind of broken due to an
other recent fix. It’s fixed now in svn for all branches.

As a workaround you can also change the language preference and log out
and in again.

Thanks for your fast reply but I don’t see a possible workaround. The preferences does NOT allow a language selection as already written. BTW: it also didn’t work in ewg 1.6 and hence I guess that something else might be corrupted.

Maybe you (or an other admin) forced the language preference …

Did you ever get a solution to this problem?

I am using the latest nightly builds and have the exact same problem (windows install on XP).

I really don’t want to re-install again .

Problem is, as I wrote 2 years ago, a forced user preference for the
language. You need to log in as an EGroupware admin and remove the
forced preference.
