Getting and Using xTuple Translation Files

Dear Sirs:

I cannot see the images about how to place .qm file on Mac OSX....
Neither Firefox, Explorer and Safari

Regards

Hi:

I can see the images okay. Maybe try clearing your browser cache and see if that fixes the problem.

Hello,
After download the qm file and put that to a the client root folder just like the how to use the translate file.But when I set a new local then relogin the PostBooks system come out a message"cannot load the dictionary".How to solve the problem?Can someone help me about that???

Hi, zhengsq:

It's possible your Locale is not set up quite right. On the Locale screen, try setting the language to your desired language and the country to "[Any]" and see if that fixes it. It's also possible you have the .qm file in the wrong place. (Keep in mind the .qm file location is slightly different depending on if you are running Windows, Mac, or Linux.)

Here's a link to a video with more information about i18n and translation:

I looked, but it seems that the xTuple.en.qm file is missing and doesn't exist anywhere. Wondering if PostBooks users in the U.S. are not privileged to this file?

I am assuming I am looking for a file called xTuple.en.qm according the the xTuple ERP Reference Guide Version 3.3.

There is a locale file for all other countries, but the US.

If you could direct me to where the English locale can be downloaded and used that would be great!!

Hi, ppmuetze:

On the User Preferences screen select the "Ignore missing translations" option. That will solve the problem for you.

I'm sorry, but, placed the xTuple.nl.qm file in the right dir. Still don't have a dutch translation. What is wrong?

Hi, jnoever:

If you're not seeing the Dutch translated version of xTuple, then it's possible you haven't a) set up a Dutch Locale in xTuple or b) haven't associated your user with the Dutch Locale in xTuple. Here's a link to a page which explains more about this:

Hello,
I just downloaded the French Canadian extension. The file extension is .html, and it looks like it's not taken into account by the application. The screens do not get translated.

Thanks for your help.

Hi, Christophe:

We have seen sporadic problems like this from some internet browsers. Try using a different browser--like Firefox. See if that solves the problem.

I've placed the translation file in the right directory. Do I need to do more than that cause all titles are still in english.

Hi, R_van_breemen:

Yes, you need to also define your Locale (by user) in xTuple. Here is a link to some documentation you may find helpful:

Hi,
I placed the xTuple.fr_ca.qm file in the MacOs directory. I even changed the access rights to it but:
1) I get an error message (The Translation Dictionaries openrpt, reports, fixcountry, xtpos, xtdesktop, te cannot be loaded. Reverting to the default dictionary.) Nothing is translated.
2) I tried with the "ignore Missing translation" option. No message but no translation either
3) I then set the country setup in Locale to any - Same result

I don't know what to do next.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Christophe
