Encfs ignoring locale settings?

During the process of creating the root directory and the related mount point through encfs in a non-English environment, it seems the program is ignoring the locale when creating these.
That is, when the program detects that neither the former nor the latter do exist it asks the user to create them. But despite featuring the related options (y,n) in the locale set (s,n) as expected the only working options are still (y,n).
In the end the program aborts when the locale set is used.
Any non-English user has encountered this problem? It would help in case a bug report is needed to be filled. Thanks in advance.

Hi Jiri,
Thanks for that speedy tip - that has solved it for Chrome.
I followed a similar path to get it fixed for Firefox - Settings / Content / Languages / add English/Australia [en-au] / Move Up to top spot.

SSRS 2012 SP2, Native / Report Manager, non-IE browsers show date parameters in US format MM/DD/YYYY, ignoring locale settings

I have a server running SSRS 2012 SP2, in Native / Report Manager mode. The server, reports, desktop etc are all set to en-AU.
Using IE, date parameters show as expected in DD/MM/YYYY format. However using Chrome or Firefox, they show in US format MM/DD/YYYY.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

KDM ignoring locales

Hello.
I have problem with locales after switching from manual loggin and starting X to KDM. It simply ignores exported locales from /etc/profile
and sets all to POSIX. In other words I have in /etc/profile:
export LANG="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_CTYPE="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_NUMERIC="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_TIME="en_GB.utf8"
export LC_COLLATE="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_MONETARY="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.utf8"
export LC_PAPER="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_NAME="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_ADDRESS="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_TELEPHONE="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_MEASUREMENT="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_IDENTIFICATION="pl_PL.utf8"
unset LC_ALL
and I end up with:
[zergu]> locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"

The JUNavigationBar don't works whit the locale settings (9.0.2)

I have a problem with JUNavigationBar, it ignores the locale settings. The application module configuration is set with "es" & "ES" locale properties. I check the locale when the app runs with:
Locale.getDefault();
app.getApplicationModule().getSession().getLocale(); app.getApplicationModule().getSession().getLocaleContext().getLocale();
and they are right ("es", "ES").
How can I get that JUNavigationBar uses the UIMessageBundle_es_ES which is deployed with the jar file?
Thanks!

I Performed the following local settings.
1. Before first line at the main method :
Locale.setDefault(new Locale("it", "IT"));
2. Locale properties in the Application module configuration
JUApplication app = JUMetaObjectManager.createApplicationObject("Project1.DeptEmpServices", null, new JUEnvInfoProvider());
app.setLocale(new Locale("it","IT"));
JNavigationBar , it ignores again the locale settings.
JNavigationBar doesn't use the UIMessageBundle_it.
I checked the locale settings when the app runs with:
app.getApplicationModule().getSession().getLocale() --> it_IT
app.getApplicationModule().getSession().getLocaleContext().getLocale() --> it_IT

WRV200 Ignores DNS Settings

Hi all,
I have recently got my VPN to work working however I need to get works DNS in. I have configured these in the interface manually and it just ignores the settings and gets standard ones. Is their a way i can either:
1) Assign the DNS of work on my local machine
OR
2) Force it to read this setting?
I have upgraded to the latest firmware and I can ping my router from my work machine, just not the other way round.
Cheers
Mat

Hi… Are you able to ping to the WAN IP address at the office? If not, then you office router does not allow you to ping. You need to check that out with Network Admin at your Office. About the DNS servers, Once your VPN is established, your DNS settings will come into picture and you would then be able to test if the router is able to communicate with this DNS or not. Without the VPN connection, assigning a DNS server would have no effect whatsoever. If you assign a DNS server in the Static DNS settings on the router it should work. If not you can simply assign a DNS server on your PC. In that case you would need to assign one DNS server from ISP and second one be the work DNS.

System ignores locale/language setting [solved?]

Hi
I updated my system a few days ago and since then all gtk2/3 applications ignores language settings. I have set correct locale in /etc/locale.conf, /etc/locale.gen (I haven't changed it since installation), locale command also returns correct values. Even if I force locale from command line (by changing LANG or LC_ALL), apps are still in english.
When the problem appears I had Cinnamon desktop, but i tried also Gnome and Kde - same effect (in Kde problem affects gtk apps), I also tried to change login manager (lxdm, lightdm, gdm, kdm), also without positive result. Clearing user config also doesn't help. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: It seems whole system ignores locale (in kde I just can manually select custom locale and then it works in kde/qt apps), including console apps (I just didn't notice that before). Strange thing is that Thunderbird has also correct language settings although it is not kde/qt app (in contrast to e.g firefox, which even ignores general.useragent.locale variable).

Hallelujah, finally disabled OOPP. I use Firefox 9.0.1 and will not upgrade to anything that ignores my settings. Been looking for this info for years!

As soon as Firefox came out with OOPP, I immediately asked how to permanently disable it and had a Firefox developer straight-up lie to me and say it couldn't be done without downgrading. Thank GOODNESS for the instructions on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/713600?page=1 Finally, finally I have excised the hated OOPP!
I run Firefox 9.0.1 and will not upgrade, ever, unless I see signs that Mozilla has radically altered its development direction and discarded most of the boneheaded, broken, anti-user development that has gone into versions more recent than Firefox 1.x. Actually making your mission statement more than an empty promise might be a good place to start.
Let's see...anything else? Oh yeah, any developer who advocates overriding or ignoring user settings, or taking control away from the user, should be kicked off the team. (and investigated as a possible Government mole, but that's a lot to ask for). I hear Konqueror and Safari are looking for new devs. It gets old fast when you try to get support and instead get haughty "You're doing it wrong, stop doing that" responses. I'm doing exactly what I intend to be doing and if you can't support that, someone else will. If you really gave a damn about your users, you might start by backporting security fixes to previous versions instead of spewing out a cacophony of incompatible new versions so rapidly you end up confusing and alienating users and making them switch updates off entirely. I mean seriously, what happens when Firefox hits triple digits? You could stick a decimal in front of it, and name that build after a historic baseball player who had that batting average. But even then you will run out of players in a few months.
It's truly sad. I switched to Firefox because it was the best browser. But Firefox has been backsliding horribly since around 2.0, and the other browsers seem to be in about the same boat. Firefox IS still the best browser - but only if you use an ancient, unsupported version. That's a big problem.

Using an obsolete version released [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/9.0.1/releasenotes/ December 11th 2011] is the exact definition of downgrading. It exposes your system to all the security vulnerabilities that have been fixed since then.
* https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
Out-of-process plug-ins was made mandatory on Windows Vista and later because Adobe don't test Flash Player's protected mode with OOPP disabled. This change didn't happen until Firefox 14, so there was no need to go as far back as Firefox 9.0.1.
If you absolutely have to, you can disable OOPP by creating the ''MOZ_DISABLE_OOP_PLUGINS'' environment variable and setting its value to '''1'''. Firefox must be restarted for the change to take effect. This works in the current version of Firefox, so there's no need to use obsolete insecure versions.<br>
If you don't know how to create an environment variable, see the following article for instructions (the "Using the Custom Environment Variable" section is not relevant).

Is there a way from where I can restore my profile from a back-up that I took from a folder (e.g \Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\)

Before re-installing Firefox 19, I mistakenly took backup of my profile from a folder - C:\Documents and Settings\garan14\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and not from C:\Documents and Settings\garan14\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles.
While installing, I selected "Delete the old profiles" option and I don't see any old profile folder under C:\Documents and Settings\garan14\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles.
However, I have a lot of important data saved under that profile which now has got deleted.
Is there any way I can still restore the data from old profile? (P.S.: As mentioned above, I have a back-up of profile folder which resides under Local Settings folder)
I am in a desperate need for the help. Pls reply as soon as possible.

i have some problem. i delete firefox profile and i cannot use mozilla right now. can you help me ? thank you

Locale Settings lost on mobile client 7.8.2.14 after creation of BIP report

Hi All,
we went live with BI Publisher reports (Siebel 7.8.2.14) at the beginning of June.
Now some of our users are having trouble with their mobile web client.
For example our colleagues in Poland have their Windows XP regional settings set to "Polish". It will make Siebel use date format for all date fields (e.g. activity start date) display as YYYY-MM-DD - this works just fine until user is creating a BIP report. After successfull report creation, all locale settings in the mobile client are lost. Instead of YYYY-MM-DD, the dates are displayed in DD.MM.YYYY and creation of new records produces and error. Also, currency and number formats are mixed up.
I assume it's a bug - anyone hit this before?
Edited by: Penky on Jun 17, 2011 11:38 AM

Yes, we finally decided to do so!
The main reason was that we had a lot of new report change requests and did not want to do the work twice (now in Actuate and then again in BIP). Also we plan our 8.x upgrade for second half of 2011 so this was already some kind of preparation, so we can completely focus on the upgrade afterwards and don't need to hassle around with the reports as well.
issues we're still facing include "user's are not able to run reports after they change their position" or "List reports can only be run for few records, otherwise the search spec hit's an IO field's length limitation" or "report popup can not be suppressed although there's no useful information in it" (not to forget the one described in this thread) and some others.
Well ... after 1 1/2 years since I downloaded the first integration QF the BIP journey still does not end - it's like it just started :)

JVM bug with Turkish locale settings (windows)

Hello,
There is a serious bug in all versions of java virtual machine. When you set your locale settings to Turkish language, you can not install & use database driven java applications (that needs to create a database). For example; you can't install oracle 9i or 10g, ORA-12560 arises in database creation phase; and you can't install Readerware (a book cataloger), it locks-up in database creation phase, too. Ofcourse when you change your language to English or another language the problem goes away.
I found that the source of the problem is JVM's wrong character mapping. It fails to convert Turkish and English "i" and "I" characters correctly (they're different in Turkish).
Is there anybody to fix this issue in the next release ?
Thanks,...

I logged a bug about Java's Turkish Collator implementation: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4688797.
I'm not sure if your issue would fall into the same category. It looks like a separate bug to me, although closely related.
Try logging that bug, or adding this to the bug above.

When I download a jpg picture to Photoshop Elements Editor the file is stored in Documents & Settings/My Name/Local Settings/Temp but I cannot find this location on my computer.

The pictures are attached to e-mail messages. I can get as far as Documents and Settings and my name but there is no Local Settings folder shown. Using MS search with the name of the file gives nothing. I use Windows XP and Mozilla Firefox. The file appears in Photoshop Elements and I can save it as a psd file but I cannot find either the jpg or the psd files to move them into My Pictures.

The Local Settings folder is a hidden folder.
(1) If the file appears in the Downloads manager (Tools menu or Ctrl+j), you can right-click it and use Open Containing Folder to get directly to it.
(2) To be able to see hidden folders on Windows XP in general, try this:
Open My Computer or Windows Explorer
Tools > Folder Options > View tab
Scroll down and look for the checkbox regarding hidden files and folders and unhide them.
Hopefully this will resolve the issue. Any luck?
(3) By the way, you may be able to save the images from the email message to a more convenient location by right-clicking the links and using Save Link As. (Before you open them for editing.)

How to save status bar background color in local settings(Windows Phone 8.1)

I have given the user the freedom to change background colour and save it in local settings. But I am confused on how to save the status bar colour settings because I want to give the user the freedom to choose from 4-5 colours where background of status bar
can be changed.
public static void SaveStatusBarColor()
// get status bar color
var statusBar = StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();
var color = statusBar.BackgroundColor;
// convert color to hex string
var hexCode = color.HasValue ? color.Value.ToString() : "";
// store color in local settings
ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings.Values["StatusBarColor"] = hexCode;
public static void LoadStatusBarColor()
// get color hex string from local settings
var hexCode = ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings.Values["StatusBarColor"] as string;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(hexCode))
return;
// convert hexcode to color
var color = new Color();
color.A = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(1, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
color.R = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(3, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
color.G = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(5, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
color.B = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(7, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
// set the status bar color
var statusBar = StatusBar.GetForCurrentView(); // Exception Line
statusBar.BackgroundColor = color;
}This is what was suggested to me. Initially the app runs and saves the settings.But when the app is closed and restarted again it crashes.

Hi shriyansh,
Where did you call the method SaveStatusBarColor() and LoadStatusBarColor()?
I have called your SaveStatusBarColor() in the OnNavigatedFrom method and called the LoadStatusBarColor() in the OnNavigatedTo method, it worked very well in my side.
So I can not reproduce your issue.
Here are my code and result, please try to check it:
public class test
public Color colors { get; set; }
public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
List<test> testdemo = new List<test>();
public MainPage()
this.InitializeComponent();
testdemo.Add(new test() { colors = Colors.Red });
testdemo.Add(new test() { colors = Colors.Green});
testdemo.Add(new test() { colors = Colors.Gray});
testdemo.Add(new test() { colors = Colors.Blue });
this.NavigationCacheMode = NavigationCacheMode.Required;
public static void SaveStatusBarColor()
// get status bar color
var statusBar = StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();
var color = statusBar.BackgroundColor;
// convert color to hex string
var hexCode = color.HasValue ? color.Value.ToString() : "";
// store color in local settings
ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings.Values["StatusBarColor"] = hexCode;
public static void LoadStatusBarColor()
//get color hex string from local settings
var hexCode = ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings.Values["StatusBarColor"] as string;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(hexCode))
return;
// convert hexcode to color
var color = new Color();
color.A = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(1, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
color.R = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(3, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
color.G = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(5, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
color.B = byte.Parse(hexCode.Substring(7, 2), NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier);
var statusBar = StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();
statusBar.BackgroundColor = color;
statusBar.BackgroundOpacity = 1;
protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
LoadStatusBarColor();
protected override void OnNavigatedFrom(NavigationEventArgs e)
SaveStatusBarColor();
private void ChangeColorButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
var statusBar = StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();
statusBar.BackgroundColor = testdemo[Convert.ToInt32(Mytextbox.Text)].colors;
statusBar.BackgroundOpacity = 1;
The result:

Firefox is creating endless copies of C:\Documents and Settings\Catain Kirk\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\afbrfhnj.default\Cache ... how do I stop it

I just installed 9.0.1 and it continually creates copies of C:\Documents and Settings\Catain Kirk\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\afbrfhnj.default\Cache ... how do I stop it !!!
I'm running Windows XP Version 5.1 SP3.

Hi,
That is the disk cache of Firefox, where contents of loaded pages are kept for faster retrieval and it also helps to conserve bandwidth. To disable this: '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''Network''', check (tick) '''Override automatic cache management ''' and put the value at zero.

Try this now.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Can external users change their language, time zone, and locale settings?

Hi,
We’re migrating our hosts from WebEx cloud to our on-prem solution right now (CWMS 1.5.1.323.A).
We’ve learned that CWMS 1.5 does not provide an online address book where hosts could customize language, time zone, and locale settings for their external attendees.
Do external users have any chance at all to change their language, time zone and locale settings individually?
Thank you,
Helge

Hi Dejan,
"external users" are those participants, who do not have an LDAP account in our deployment, since they are not intendet to act as hosts: our stakeholders, partners, customers, clients.
It looks, as if these people would stick to the systems' default language / time zone / locale.
We are wondering if there might be a CWMS-component like this:
https://artcom.webex.com/cmp0307l/webcomponents/widget/preference.do?serviceType=MC&siteurl=artcom&target=Page&backUrl=%2Fmw0307l%2Fmywebex%2Fdefault.do%3Fsiteurl%3Dartcom%26service%3D1
to allow those "extenal" participants to make their adjustments.
Thank you,
Helge
