Localization :: Culture Settings Work On Machine - Don't Work When Moved To Server?
Jan 20, 2010
I am working on a multi-language web site. It is half English and half Portuguese. I have created forms that have portuguese values in it. These forms work perfectly on my desktop. I'm using Cassini as the development server. When I move them over to IIS, they are not loading properly. The text comes up all weird looking. I am declaring the culture in the page attribute: Culture="pt-BR"
I am working on an ASP.net web application, the application need to display text in English, Chinese and Japanese based on the parameters passed, however the culture settings such as currency symbol, time and number format should remain as en-US locale.
My understanding about ASP.Net localization is a package deal, am I wrong? If I am right, the only way to do this is to roll my own solution?
I have created a crystal following your article which url is
[URL]
It is working fine on local machine but when i upload it on the server it is not working. Crystal Report is showing but data is not showing in the crystal report.
I'm new to ASP.NET (only been learning 6 months at college) and have set up a login page with a loginview, login name and login status. The pages work fine on my local machine I can login logout and see the user name etc..But when I upload this to my home testing server the domain name shows up http://mysite/rootfolder/login.aspx, this should read http://mysite/login.aspx. I've set the DestinationPageUrl as both a direct link and ~/admin.aspx and /admin.aspx
i developed an asp.net web site and i used ModuleRewriter to rename my pages you can refer to this link [URL] and i want to add many pages programatically at run time for example i have a page named :
[URL]styles/defaultstyle/Default.aspx
and i want to display this page like this :
[URL]Default.aspx
so my code was like this :
public static void confgrewriter() { try { RewriterRuleCollection rules = RewriterConfiguration.GetConfig().Rules; RewriterRule r = new RewriterRule(); r.LookFor ="~/Dfealut.aspx" ; r.SendTo ="~/styles/defaultstyle/Default.aspx"; rules.Add(r); } catch (Exception ex) { } }
and this solution is working very good on iis at my local machine but when i did upload this website on shared host i recive error message: The resource cannot be found.
Description:
HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
I have a masterPage that has several labels populated by a Global Resource file. For some reason every time I add a entry to the Spanish global resource file and precompile my website and move out the App-GlobalResources.compiled and App_GlobalResources.dll. The changes/Updates do not seem to be reflected on the Prod Web Server. Am I missing a file I need to move to the server? the update is working fine when I run the site locally.
I need to change culture of the specific aspx page bases on the main user's culture.I am able to fetch the data that which culture main user have.But some how I am not able to set the same culture for that aspx page.I had written the below code for that.
[Code]....
But that is not working it sets the default culture of the browser.
how can to get culture info or just culture name from the datetime string e.g i have strings like: "16/02/2008" or "23/02/2008 " can i know the culture name from the above datetime strings?
Question: Suppose my browser language is Swedish(sv-SE) then this code will run because it find CurrentUICulture and CurrentCulture values as sv-SE.
Now if suppose browser language is Swedish(sv) only, in that case values will be set as
CurrentUICulture = sv; and CurrentCulture = sv-SE
Now the problem is that user can able to view all text in Culture neutral resource file that i kept as english while all decimal saperators, currency and other will be appear in swedish. It looks confusing to usr.
What would be right approach. I am thinking following solution.
1. i can create extra resource file for sv also. 2. I check value of CurrentUICulture in base class and if it is sv then replace it with sv-SE
Please correct me which one is right approach or Is there any other good way of doing?
I have some classes which can't make assumptions about de used culture. These classes should always use CultureInfo.InvariantCulture. However, I can't set the thread's current culture to CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, because other classes rely on <globalization culture="auto".
Is there a way to ensure some classes always use explicit culture method calls (like: Convert.ToDecimal(value, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)) instead of assumed culture (like: Convert.ToDecimal(value)).Maybe my question it's not 100% clear: I'd like to detect all methods which have an overload which uses CultureInfo, but also one without the CultureInfo which uses the CurrentCulture.This includes implicit casts of numbers to string:
decimal value = 1.0; string displayThis = string.Format("Costs: {0}", value);
The goal is to make sure some classes/methods don't assume anything about CultureInfo.
I am sending in a string in dd/MM/yyyy format, which is then being parsed into lv-LV culture as set per the web.config globalization setting.I am then comparing the date to DateTime.Now to see if it is in the past.The problem is, DateTime.Parse converts my string to dd.MM.yyyy format, but DateTime.Now has MM.dd.yyyy format, so the comparison always fails.Why would DateTime.Now be different to the output from DateTime.Parse, on the same thread culture?(Update) This is the code I am using:InputText contains input from a form in DD.MM.YYYY format
DateTime date = DateTime.Parse(InputText, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture); // Check it's not in the past this.IsValid = (date.CompareTo(DateTime.Now) > 0);
[DateTime.Now] in this context is in MM.DD.YYYY format using lv-LV cultureInfo [date] is in DD.MM.YYYY format after the DateTime.Parse
I have bunch pages and I need to validate data there. If culture for example "es-ES" I should use one validation logic, if culture "en-US" than another validation logic. For example I need validate phone number. Minimum length is 11 digits. For other culture 9 digits.
I want to set culture info for my full application. where're i say datetime.now, it should give datetime based on my cultureinfo i set. how do i do it?
I have a very simple bilingual site with a link at the bottom that will allow users to switch between the two languages (english/french). the the web.config I have the following line:
<globalization culture="auto" uiCulture="auto" />
This allows for whatever the users browser culture is to be the default lanauge but I'd still like the ablility for them to click a bottom button to toggle. whats the best what to go about doing this?
As per MSDN - Culture is name for traiditional wotd locale But at som many places, people use phrase like . "I am trying to implement culture and locale" Are they same or different?
I am a new to WCF. I have written ajax to use a web service before, but on this project I am trying to use ajax to WCF.After I build the project and wcf using ajax, I receive the return successfully. But, 10 or more minutes later I don't get a return, the ajax calls the error function, and the fiddler returns nothing.
If I rebuild the project without any source modifying, I receive the return successfully again.
I'm following the instructions step by step in VS 2010, and it creates the resource files exactly how it's supposed to. However, when I run the program it just doesn't apply it. I don't see the different values from the resource file.
If I leave my resource file name as sample.aspx.resx, it works. But when I change it to sample.aspx.en-us.resx, it doesn't work. I'm supplying culture from the aspx page's Culter and UICulture properties. I'm being very careful in choosing the correct file name, as that could be the issue, but it just doesn't work. I also tried changing the culture in the backend code this way:
Protected Overrides Sub InitializeCulture() [code]....
I'm trying to change the value of the language and culture values via a database entry and then appending the culture to the returned value. IE: "en" is in the database, I add "-CA" via VB code.When I hardcode the values, it does work no problem. However, appding the "-CA" makes it crash with the following error message:
[Code]....
Now, I'm retrieving the language value from a database and, since the information is used all over the web site, I cannot really change the data within the database.The following code is posted in the Default.aspx page, called by the master page.The function "siteSetLanguage" retrieves from the database the base language (EN/FR) and returns the value. Null values are checked for and if a null value is returned from the database, it defaults to EN.[Code]....
I do want to force UICulture to english as everything in the databases and external files are stored through the english canadian regional method. However, I've been trying to use .resx files using the above method, but to no avail.Needless to say, my language files don't seem to work no matter what I do.
I have an Label where I need to show the value 0.00 if the culture is Englidh and 0,00 if the Culture is french. I am using the following code but it does not work.
below is what I'd like to do (but i cant because cant convert source type string to target type 'System.DateTime'). I want to localize the account.LastUpdated value from DateTime to localized string and have it available to use in my view. Im getting the account.LastUpdated from a service, which I cant control. what I get back is what i get back. do i extend AccountsViewModel to have additional properties in AccountsViewModelFormatted? [Code]....
