Manager language and webmail..
« on: November 10, 2003, 01:04:57 PM »
Hi,

Despite that I selected English as the server language when installing, the server manager web interface is in French (probably because I'm running a French OS).  How can I force it to display the manager web pages in English?

I also have problems with the webmail.  I have installing v6b3 and applied all the patches (however, I got a dependency error when updating SSH though, see last post in other thread "Upgrade patches install order").  I then created a couple of test users and assigned passwords to them.  

When I open webmail and try to log in it refuses, and complains about bad username or wpd.  I have tried in non-secure and secure mode, same problem.  Can this have something with the SSH dependence prob?  Maybe for secure mode, but it shouldn't for non-secure...?  Anyhow I wonder why webmail does not welcome me..

The new version looks really cool (upgrading from 4.1.2 ;-)  However I thought the accented character ban in information bay descriptions had been lifted :-|

best regards

Tor

When I reassigned both test users' passwords it worked.  However I'm *sure* I did not have CAPS on the first time.  Sorry, but I appreciate comments on the other questions.

That's a setting in your browser. In IE you go to Tools-Options-General-Languages

Go to the directory with the beta3 packages and run:
rpm -Uvh openssh*.rpm
rpm -Uvh e-smith-openssh*.rpm

That changes the browser's menus, dialogs' language, but I meant the SME server's http text, i.e. which is displayed in the browser.

That should change the languages your browser is requesting from web servers. The server only responds as your browser instructs it to do.
