Requirement
Install languages manager
apt-get install locales
Add new language
Search for your language [replace fr by your own language like zh or sv...]
less /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED | grep fr
!! Always take the UTF-8 + ISO values !! Examples:
- en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8
- fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8
- sv_SE.UTF-8 UTF-8
- zh_CN.UTF-8 UTF-8
Add the new language to the list of the local languages
echo "fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local
[!] The key fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8 must match an entry in the SUPPORTED file !!
[alternative] you can directly edit the file:
vim /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local
# You should have:
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8
sv_SE.UTF-8 UTF-8
Regenerate system languages
dpkg-reconfigure locales
Check result:
locale -a
You need to restart your services before using the new languages.
service apache2 restart
service zabbix-server restart
