Good morning Guys,
I'm running python 2.5 on a Debian based system and I'm looking for your advice on how to set the locale for my application. I've read through the locale module documentation http://docs.python.org/lib/module-locale.html and tried a couple of the examples but can't seem to get it working. For instance, when I attempt to run the following code: import locale locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'de_DE') I get an exception raised by the application which says: Traceback (most recent call last): File "locale_test.py", line 2, in <module> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'de_DE') File "/usr/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 478, in setlocale return _setlocale(category, locale) locale.Error: unsupported locale setting My questions are; what would be causing this error? Do I need any additional packages installed on the system for this locale support to work properly? How can I get a list of available locales? Many thanks for any advice guys, Robert
