WampServer

Morning,

I have a php project that uses the gettext functionality to translate the texts. I have two languages in my project, Spanish and English.

The language file structure is the next:

/locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo
/locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo

The php code that I am using to select one language or another is the next:

if($languageCode == "en"
{
$languageEncode = "en_US";
}
elseif($languageCode == "es"
{
$languageEncode = "es_ES";
}
else
{
$languageEncode = "en_US";
}

putenv("LC_ALL=$languageEncode";
setlocale(LC_ALL, $languageEncode);

bindtextdomain("plantasenelaire", "./locale/";
textdomain("plantasenelaire";
bind_textdomain_codeset("plantasenelaire", 'UTF-8');

The code works just fine when using wamp 2.4 (32bits) with Apache 2.4.4 and PHP 5.4.16 on my Windows 7 64 bits.

The code also works fine on my linux shared hosting when using PHP 5.6 or PHP 7

Today I decided uninstall my wamp 2.4 and upgrade to wamp 3 with Apache 2.4.23 – PHP 5.6.25/7.0.10. I have installed all the Visual C++ Packages needed and then installed wamp 3 64 bits.

The code works but the language is always in Spanish no matter what I do. Always Spanish no matter if I use PHP 5.6 or 7.

I have tried multiples combinations and codes for the putenv and setlocale functions that I have found on the Internet without any luck :/

After trying wamp 3 (32 and 64 version) I went back to wamp 2.4, just to check if any of the Visual C++ Packages I installed messed up something on my Windows...

Everything works fine on wamp 2.4 with Apache 2.4.4 and PHP 5.4.16. It also works fine in my hosting as I said with PHP 5.6 and 7.

I don't know why is happening this.

Anyone can help me here? Any suggestion is welcomed.

Thank you a lot!

Did you check the error logs?

I have been playing around with this code:

putenv("LC_ALL=en-US";
var_dump( setlocale(LC_ALL, "en-US");
var_dump( setlocale(LC_ALL, 0));


bindtextdomain("plantasenelaire", "./locale/";
textdomain("plantasenelaire";
bind_textdomain_codeset("plantasenelaire", 'UTF-8');

echo _("POSTAL_CODE";
die;

changing from /locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo to /locale/en-US/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo

restarting the server

output of the php is:


C:\wamp64\www\plants\libs\Bootstrap.php:137:string 'en-US' (length=5)

C:\wamp64\www\plants\libs\Bootstrap.php:138:string 'en-US' (length=5)

Código postal

if I rename locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo to /locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/xyz.mo and restart, the output is:

C:\wamp64\www\plants\libs\Bootstrap.php:137:string 'en-US' (length=5)

C:\wamp64\www\plants\libs\Bootstrap.php:138:string 'en-US' (length=5)

"POSTAL_CODE"

if I rename locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo to /locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/plantasenelaire.mo and restart, the output is:

C:\wamp64\www\plants\libs\Bootstrap.php:137:string 'en-US' (length=5)

C:\wamp64\www\plants\libs\Bootstrap.php:138:string 'en-US' (length=5)

Postal code

It seems it goes to the es_ES directory no matter what.

Hi,

To use gettext you have to follow some requirements: [fr2.php.net] and install gettext 0.19.8.1 and iconv 1.14 - Binaries for Windows

Hi,

Installed and restarted OS, nothing has changed :/ Was it needed for the 3.0.6 wamp version? The thing is that the code works in wamp 2.4 (32bits) with Apache 2.4.4 and PHP 5.4.16 or in my shared hosing with linux and php 5.6 or 7

Any way to debug why is always reading from the es_ES ?

Thank you guys

Compare PHP extensions and Apache modules loaded.

Hi,

Yeah I did but still not working.

The only work around I can think of is to put all the language.mo files under the es_ES folder and then change the domain depending to the language to load.

I just don't get it what is going on, driving me crazy this issue.

what have changed in the wamp version to make not work the setlocale and putenv functions?

Thanks
