LOCALE LANG Question

I need to install the utf8 languages for the following.
de_DE.utf8
es_ES.utf8
fr_CA.utf8
fr_FR.utf8
it_IT.utf8
sv_SE.utf8
This should be part of the International fileset which is installed during the Core OS build I believe, but when I ran a locale -a to see what was available only the univ.utf8 was along with all the iso and roman locales.

My problem is that the fileset is installed but the utf8 locales are not seen.

This is for an HPUX 11.00 server.

Do I need to reinstall the International filesets or is there an alternative approach?

Re: LOCALE LANG Question

OK, thanks for that, all these patches are already installed though so why can I still not see the utf8 locales when running a locale -a?

Re: LOCALE LANG Question

Hi, when you run "ls -l /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.2" can you find the utf8's you listed?

Re: LOCALE LANG Question

Can you check if you will get different result from "locale -a 32" and "locale -a 64"?

can you check as well?

On a 64-bit system locale use /usr/lib/nls/loc/pa20_64/locales.2.
