#22596 [NEW]: Setlocale(LC_ALL,"swedish") does not work

From: mats2 at nerdlabs dot org Operating system: Linux, Debian 3.0 PHP version: 4.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Gettext related Bug description: Setlocale(LC_ALL,"swedish") does not work Running php 4.3.0/apache 1.3.27 on debian 3.0 (php & apache downloaded and compiled from non-debian sources) I've run into a problem with setlocale(). After a few hours trying to use gettext() to add swedish support to a site i discovered that the combination LC_ALL and sv_SE/swedish for setlocale() does not work. Almost all other combinations of LC_'s and languages I've tried works as expected. This short test script: <?php echo "LC_MESSAGES,swedish = ".setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,"swedish")."<br>"; echo "LC_MESSAGES,sv_SE = ".setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,"sv_SE")."<br>"; echo "LC_MESSAGES,danish = ".setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,"danish")."<br>"; echo "LC_ALL,swedish = ".setlocale(LC_ALL,"swedish")."<br>"; echo "LC_ALL,sv_SE = ".setlocale(LC_ALL,"sv_SE")."<br>"; echo "LC_ALL,danish = ".setlocale(LC_ALL,"danish")."<br>"; echo "LC_NUMERIC,swedish = ".setlocale(LC_NUMERIC,"swedish")."<br>"; echo "LC_NUMERIC,sv_SE = ".setlocale(LC_NUMERIC,"sv_SE")."<br>"; echo "LC_NUMERIC,danish = ".setlocale(LC_NUMERIC,"danish")."<br>"; ?> Returns the followning result: LC_MESSAGES,swedish = swedish LC_MESSAGES,sv_SE = sv_SE LC_MESSAGES,danish = danish LC_ALL,swedish = LC_ALL,sv_SE = LC_ALL,danish = danish LC_NUMERIC,swedish = swedish LC_NUMERIC,sv_SE = sv_SE LC_NUMERIC,danish = danish The config line is: ./configure \ --with-mysql \ --with-apxs=/usr/local/sbin/apxs \ --with-config-file-path=/etc/apache \ --enable-safe-mode \ --with-gettext=/usr/bin \ --with-exec-dir \ --with-xml \ --with-bz2 \ --with-zlib \ --with-gd \ --with-exif \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib \ --with-png-dir=/usr/lib \ --with-ttf \ --enable-gd-native-ttf I've generated _ALL_ locales available on the system. /Mats -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22596&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22596&r=gnused
