LANG variable

I have my LANG variable set to
ja_JP.SJIS

I have loaded HPUXJpn32RT on the machine.

What else needs to be done to enable Japanese messages for output.

Re: LANG variable

Hi,

Take a look at "Configuring HPUX for different languages" on the documentation server :

http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/5185-4400/5185-4400.html

You need to set up the message cataloges and the desktop interface for the language too.

cheers,

James.

Re: LANG variable


Are you seeing any specific issues? If so what OS?

There is also /etc/rc.config.d/LANG to change and also in the ITO startup configs LANG is set etc.

Re: LANG variable

Is this the way the messages are and it is quite normal.

Just thought those messages to be in readable format.

Re: LANG variable

Hello Manikandan,

Well, I have also written on-line help for a product and it gets localized in Japanese. When I view the on-line help in Internet Explorer, I am able to see Japanese characters. But, if I view the same file in the Mozilla Web browser, I see all ??????? question marks.

You can ask your localization team to check on this and they will let you know if it is okay.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Hemanth

Now I have managed to bring up japanese messages on the server console.
But I am getting junk on the Windows PC doing a telnet.

I have installed japanese fonts on the windows PC.

Any settings for TTY connections.

Re: LANG variable

Hello Manikandan,

I did have a look at your attachment. Yes, it is displaying junk characters as well.

Do have a look at this Website, which contains lot of information about Japanese localization and tty settings you have to do.

Hope this helps.

Re: LANG variable

This could be for future help.

One should have language packs installed on the windows version.

Also,one should make sure that
CODESET is set to japanese in the telnet options

telnet>set CODESET japanese EUC
telnet>open
(to)

now things work.


Thanks
