Full Discussion: Locales and conversion tables confusion - Some characters don't get translated
Operating Systems AIX Locales and conversion tables confusion - Some characters don't get translated Post 302503875 by zxmaus on Saturday 12th of March 2011 05:57:48 AM

Hi,
you probably still need the english UTF-8 locales installed. The English UTF-8 locale is required for all languages and the localized UTF-8 locale is required for each non-English language that will be used if you want to use national language characters.

What is locale -a showing on your server?

Regards
zxmaus
