Hi guys, I was just wondering whether anybody has encountered a similar situation to the following....
We have an application we developed that we run on JBoss. When we ran it on a Debian machine it seemed to ignore the machines locale (en_NZ) and use US date formats instead. The odd thing being that a Redhat machine with exactly the same locale settings, and the same JBoss/JDK installation worked correctly though. A W2K and a Solaris machine also worked correctly (same JBoss installation and Sun JDK version). Debian itself was using the local date formats correctly eg with 'date +%x' from bash, and JBoss on Debian would show the correct date format if the user region and language were hard coded into $JAVA_OPTS in the run.sh startup script. ie: JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Duser.region=NZ -Duser.language=en" Is this a case of Sun not testing their JVM quite well enough on Debian? (if at all) Or have we set up our locale incorrectly? (details below) Software Versions: Debian Woody x86 jboss-3.0.3_tomcat-4.1.12 (downloaded from jboss.org) Sun's j2sdk-1_4_1_01-linux-i586 (the non rpm install) Locale set by 'LANG=en_NZ' in /etc/environment (only line present). Output of 'locale': LANG=en_NZ LC_CTYPE="en_NZ" LC_NUMERIC="en_NZ" LC_TIME="en_NZ" LC_COLLATE="en_NZ" LC_MONETARY="en_NZ" LC_MESSAGES="en_NZ" LC_PAPER="en_NZ" LC_NAME="en_NZ" LC_ADDRESS="en_NZ" LC_TELEPHONE="en_NZ" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_NZ" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_NZ" LC_ALL= Has anybody else noticed that or tried to confirm it?
