Hello, I'm having some problems translating my website into both
english and russian.
English always worked, now I'm trying to add russian by translating
the .po file and compiling again.
Here's my directory structure.
-root
---locale
------en_GB
---------LC_MESSAGES
------------messages.mo
------------messages.po
------ru_RU
---------LC_MESSAGES
------------messages.mo
------------messages.po
Here's the code to set the language (in a file in the root folder),
omitting all the bits where I use the GET variable and save a cookie:
putenv("LC_ALL=$locale");
setlocale(LC_ALL, $locale);
bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale");
textdomain("messages");
$locale contains either 'it_IT' or 'en_GB' or 'ru_RU'.
Italian and english are now working but if I choose russian I get
italian (default) instead.
In case this helps, the page has utf-8 encoding and I already tried
printing cyrillic successfully.
I'm on Ubuntu 8.04 with Apache, PHP 5.2.4.
Thank

What's the return value of setlocale(), when you try ru_RU? Is that
locale installed on the server? If you have shell access, check the
output of "locale -a" (or call it from within PHP with system()).

This returns en_GB when I choose english, nothing when I choose
Italian or Russian

yes, "locale -a" shows I have ru_RU.utf8 installed, as well as
it_IT.utf8 and en_GB, en_GB.iso885915, en_GB.utf8 .
Thanks again

This nothing should be a FALSE, meaning that something went wrong.

OK. If this is the complete list, then there is no ru_RU locale
installed - ru_RU.utf8 is something different! Try that one (you might
have to rename the directory under /locale).

You are right, I didn't rename the folder. It works now, thank you!!
