Max, I don't think any of those errors have anything to do with the language problem.

Thanks for that.

Good to know that I don't have to search further in this direction.

Cheers

Checking out this problem on my local installation (with Catalan and Spanish language packs) I find that to actually change the language I have to click twice in the change button. The first time you click it change the dropdown menu showing the first row (the site default language) but if you just click again it change the language to the one you selected.

It's a really strange behavior.

I hope this will help to solve the problem.

Best regards.

Many thanks for this hint.

I tried it out. Unfortunately (with my German Language Pack) it doesn't solve the problem.

Hello, I replaced the lib-mahara.php of the v 1.2.3 with the code of v. 1.2.5, as Antonio suggested that the problem may lie in the current_language function, but for me it is working fine, with 1.2.5. (Spanish and English packages) Maybe the problem lies in other parts of the code. Regards

This is "normal". When you submit the form, it's actually an AJAX request that submits the new values (to verify them, save them in the db, etc.). So the page is only partially reloaded, and some parts remain form the old page. The old parts were rendered with the previous language, so that's what you see that behaviour.

As soon as you click on any part that provokes a page load, you get the contents in the new language.

Yeah, we really need to force a reload of the page whenever the language is changed for logged-out users.  I've done this on master, so it should now behave correctly on 1.3.0b2, but I noticed I never made the change to the 1.2 series.  I've just added it now so it'll be in 1.2.6.

Just this change, for those in a hurry:

Hello I have had the same problem when I upgraded the first time from 1.1.x to 1.2. In 1.2 the languages files are in a different place (in the data folder). After my upgrade I noticed that there was a conflict between old location of langpacks (all over the system) and the new language pack folder. In one of my instance of mahara I have proceeded a new installation from sratch and the diff languages packs reworked correctly. In a second one I removed by hand all previous Lang files and it rewroked as well. Hope that helps D Jan

Thank you for the hint.

I also tried with a new installation. Did you also rebuild the database? I only reinstalled the files from scratch and this didn't solve the problem.

Cheers
