Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66265&edit=1 ID: 66265 Comment by: louisantoinem at gmail dot com Reported by: roeycohen at gmail dot com Summary: gettext is not working anymore Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: Gettext related Operating System: windows PHP Version: 5.5.7 Assigned To: ab Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: For me, fixed by adding the needed locales, in my case: locale-gen fr_FR.UTF-8 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-05-16 07:50:27] louisantoinem at gmail dot com same problem on PHP 5.5.9 Ubuntu 14.04 gettext seems to always select the same catalogue worked with the exact same source code in PHP 5.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-05-15 05:00:54] e at elasten dot eu I have almost the same problem on Win7 64bit. The script is using the system default locale (Hungarian) to load the .po file and not the setlocale/putenv variables, but interestingly for me PHP 5.3.28b works and neither 5.4.28a and 5.5.12a. I am using Uniform Server Zero XI which can switch loaded PHP version with a restart of the server. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-04-29 14:52:36] gab at forme dot it I have the same problem on win 7 64bit, after upgrading to xampp 1.8.3 (php 5.5.9) gettext doesn't work. With previous xampp 1.8.2 (php 5.4.27) gettext works fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-03-06 14:53:38] barry at staes dot nl I experienced the regression when upgrading from XAMPP 1.8.2 to 1.8.3, which was using PHP 5.4.19 and PHP 5.5.6 respectively. Its easily reproduced, both on Windows 7 and 8.1. First setlocale(LC_MESSAGES, 'nl_NL.UTF8') works, but after upgrade it wont. On a sidenote, the OS does not need to have the locales i was using via PO files installed, or have matching names at all, but it worked excelent nonetheless. Now it always sets the locale to the OS language, and loads that PO files. No matter what setlocale() gets called with. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-02-25 16:44:40] swbva at thecloudindex dot com Oh yes, @ab; of course it seems to me this isn't a case of having the right languages installed? On Win7, there is 'Region and Language', I guess all that are in the 'format' dropdown are supported (probably the same list as on the page the first link I've given in my previous post is pointing to). And of course, it IS workin in PHP 5.4... So (at least) it /looks/ like the OS / 'installed' 'languages' isn't the problem?
