I can set LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in /etc/init.d/apache on a Ubuntu system, PHP's setlocale echos it and i18n text is handled properly. However, if I do LANG=de_DE.ISO-8859-1@euro or LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 setlocale returns nothing and there is no error reported in Apache's log. If I run: # locale -a C en_US.utf8 POSIX This suggests to me that I simply do not have the right locate data. Do I need to install locale files? The language-support-de package on Ubuntu looks promising but I'm not sure. Any ideas?
