This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
To Reproduce: 1. Download NetBeans 3.4 installer for RedHat Linux, and run installer "NetBeansODE-xxxxxx-linux.bin". 2. Install Shield is started. And, Error has occurred (<- This error is filed as another issue). 3. Characters (include some ascii characters) in the terminal are not correctly. This might be based on Install Shield's Known Problem. Install Shield assumes SJIS locale, for any RedHat Linux environment. In FFJ 4.0, Messages for standard output are indicated in English, even if in japanese locale.
Created attachment 6567 [details] Screen shot from RedHat Console:
Has the installer for nb3.4 incorporated the fixes done in ffj installer for multilingual release related to bug traq issues 4670192, 4670303, 4672122 and others ? Winston Prakash, the ffj installer engineer, can give you more information on fixes done on installer releated to i18n - this iz issue seems to be same as one of the bt issues noted above. ken.frank@sun.com 07//09/2002
I have contacted Winston.I'll look at the mentioned fixes.
Set target milestone to TBD
We received patch from Winston. Rudolf, please let me know if it is on build environment.
Build Environment Patched. Fixed.
verified and closed
Hello, This issue is re-appeared in following environment. - NetBeans Development Build (trunk, 200212020100) - RedHat Linux 7.2 ja (LANG=ja_JP.eucJP, LANG=ja_JP.SJIS) - jdk 1.4.1 (build 1.4.1-b21) And, this is re-appeared only japanese locale. (ja_JP.eucJP, ja_JP.SJIS) When I run NB installer in C locale, English UIs are appeared correctly in the terminal. Could someone re-investigate this ?? Hiroshi
Is it problem only on jdk1.4.1? Rudolf, is it something changed in build (removed patch?)?
Hiroshi, the installer build machine (Win2k) was not touched for couple of months regarding JDK or InstallShield upgrade, build shell script changes etc. Would you, please, check whether the same behavior appears in older NB installers (say of beginning of November etc)? Also from my own experience JDKs 1.4.x on RedHat Linux boxes are very sensitive to content of LANG environment variable. Perhaps stupid hint, but would you try it also with LANG=ja_JP (w/o dotted extension)?
Hello Rudolf, Results are followings. - NB 2002 1202 0100, jdk1.4.1, LANG=ja_JP.eucJP: re-appeared - NB 2002 1202 0100, jdk1.4.1, LANG=ja_JP: re-appeared - NB 2002 1202 0100, jdk1.4.0_02, LANG=ja_JP.eucJP: re-appeared - NB 2002 1202 0100, jdk1.4.0_02, LANG=ja_JP: re-appeared - NB release34 2002 0822 2340, jdk1.4.1, LANG=ja_JP.eucJP: re-appeared - NB release34 2002 0822 2340, jdk1.4.1, LANG=ja_JP: re-appeared - NB release34 2002 0822 2340, jdk1.4.0_02, LANG=ja_JP.eucJP: re-appeared - NB release34 2002 0822 2340, jdk1.4.0_02, LANG=ja_JP: re-appeared I feel that, this problem haven't been repaired, yet. Hiroshi.
Could you consult this with Ken, please? It might be problem somewhere in testing.
Consistent use of the I18N keyword.
It can be reproduced with NetBeans 3.5 RC2. RedHat 7.2 locale: ja_JP.eucjp JDK: 1.4.1_02 Would you please try to reproduce again? I think it can be reproduced in normal test case. I guess the English message should be displayed in the above environment, but the corrupted Japanese message is displayed.
I also see this now on Linux. What are the possiblities of messages from us or Installshield that might show in console ? Perhaps we can add to release notes about them or force the messages into English ? But if forcing messages to english for console would also force them to english for installer panels itself, that would not help. ken.frank@sun.com
If it can be fixed as same as Sun ONE Studio installer, the English message will be displayed only in terminal. I've changed the priority from P3 to P2, because corrupted character always displayed in terminal. And 'Terminal Reset' is needed after installation. Is it too late to fix in 3.5? Keiichi
I'm not sure it is not late, but I'll try to do the best. Could you please let me know bug number fixing the same problem in S1S? Also if you have contact to person who fixed it, please let me know (but it will be in bugreport).
Same issue in bugtraq is #4670192 in Ken's comment (07//09/2002) as above. And it was already fixed. Hiroshi
Hm, so something should happend with patch. Rudolf, please could you check it once more, if the mentioned patch is still on build env?
Richard, I'm not sure, I know what patch you're talking about.
I assume this issue was fixed. As it is mentioned above we got patch from Winston. And this patch I'm thinking about. Do you remember that patch? Maybe we have some backup of it somewhere.
Patch is on build machine, so signing as fixed (preliminary test passed). Please verify. Thanks
I've verified the fixing in all combinations of followings. - NetBeansIDE-release35-200306242351-ML-JA-linux.bin and NetBeansIDE-release35-200306242351-ML-JA-ZH-linux.bin - JDK 1.4.1_02 rpm - RedHat Linux 7.2 Japanese - ja_JP.eucJP, ja_JP.utf8, japanese.sjis, C Thank you for the fixing !!! Hiroshi
Resolved for 3.4 or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
