It took me a while to figure out how to get a Finnish locale correctly set on Ubuntu Server with Apache2 and PHP5. At first the output for "locale -a" was this: C en_US.utf8 POSIX I had to install a finnish language pack with "sudo apt-get install language-pack-fi-base" Now the output for "locale -a" is: C en_US.utf8 fi_FI.utf8 POSIX The last thing you need to do after installing the correct language pack is restart Apache with "sudo apache2ctl restart". The locale "fi_FI.utf8" can then be used in PHP5 after restarting Apache. For setting Finnish timezone and locale in PHP use: <?php date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Helsinki'); setlocale(LC_ALL, array('fi_FI.UTF-8','fi_FI@euro','fi_FI','finnish')); ?> ---- Server IP: 62.237.7.3 Probable Submitter: 80.220.62.122 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.setlocale.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90919 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90919 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90919 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
