CakePHP 2.1.po files / translation does not work

I use <?php echo __("this is my string"); ?>inside my views to display text in several languages. I created a directory of .po files for German:

=> app / Locale / ger / LC_MESSAGES / default.po

msgstr "this is my line"

msgstr "dying from meine zeichenkette"

When I add Configure::write('Config.language','ger');beforeController.php to my function AppController.php, the text still remains “this is my line”. Even if I create .po for English with another msgstr, the text remains the same.

Do I need to change a specific parameter to activate the translation?

I have a problem: I added Configure::write('Config.language','eng');in core.php to set my default language, but now I can’t change the value even if I try to override it in AppController.php beforeFilter with:

Configure::write('Config.language', 'deu'); //'de' also doesn't work
CakeSession::write('Config.language', 'deu'); //'de' also doesn't work

If I changed the value in core.php, it works fine, but after installing in core.php I can’t change it.

resolved: ah, I forgot to add parent::beforeFilter();all the controllers to the beforeFilter function.

Additional Information:

  • If you want to define the default language (and usually will), add Configure::write('Config.language', 'eng');in core.php

You can look at the file lib / Cake / I18n / L10n.php to learn how to call each language.

for German:

Configure::write('Config.language','de');

= > app/Locale/deu/LC_MESSAGES/default.po
