Error description

  • Problem description
    On Windows OS with multi-language package installed (e.g.
    French), Notes client
    8.5 (e.g. Spanish version) ignores the language set in the
    Regional Options
    settings.
    In the initial setup of the Notes clients,Notes GUI is in
    English, not in local
    language (which is French).
    This issue is occurring only with multi-user install and not
    with single-user
    install.
    
    This problem always occurs if :
    - you install FP1 just after you install Notes client 8.5
    without starting once
    Notes client. - specify UserInterface=es within Notes.ini.
    Also, when you start for the first time Notes client and
    configure it all
    screen will be in English and at the end you will have an
    English interface.
    
    Environment
    Windows XP SP3 MUI French interface
    Notes 8.5 Spanish and Fix Pack 1
    
    Steps to reproduce
    1. Install a windows MUI environment.
    2.  After installation choose French interface for example.
    
    3. Then try to install Notes Spanish client. The problem happens
    only if you
    choose Multi-user installation (data in Windows user profile)
    and not if you
    choose mono-user installation. During installation process all
    screen should be
    in French (even if you used Spanish client that is CZ1FZES.exe).
    
    
    4. When you start for the first time Notes client and configure
    it all screen
    will be in English and at the end you will have an English
    interface.
    
    If you install Notes as a single-user, the installation is in
    Spanish
    
    When opening Notes Client, the user interface is Spanish also.
