Nisreen,

It is hardly possible to assist you with your request when you provide too little informations.

Can you specify which language were you trying to install, what did you do exactly to install it, and what was the result?

Regards,

Thank you so much

For your response

Currently you installing alfresco  community  version 5 

on windows server 8 R2

Add your Arabic language files

http://alf-trans.ossportal.org/

On path

tomcat / shared / lib

Then you

Restart Alfresco

But any change does not happen

It remained on the default status

Nisreen,

First of all, you should be aware that the default locale resolver within alfresco does rely on your browse locale for language detection, so if your browser is set to ask for en_US first for example, alfresco detects that and renders all string in English-US locale. 

You can either tweak your browser setting to use arabic locale or use some browser add-on for language switching to be able to see alfresco in Arabic, and if you are using chrome, you could check out this add-on.

If you which to switch language on a more permanent basis: Force Arabic language to be used every where in alfresco; then you should have your devs extend alfresco overriding DefaultLocaleResolver to always use Arabic for example, or maybe rely on some cookie parameter first then fallback to browser setting.

You should also manage your expectations: Arabic bundle for alfresco is not officially supported by alfresco, and even though there is and there has been a good community effort invested there, still there is a lot more to be done in order to fully support and translate all strings, support RTL script....

Nisreen,

I can hardly follow what you are saying, could you maybe elaborate more? or use an alternate language? French maybe? or Arabic ?

You can do as follow:

1- Right click on the new icon next to the address bar, and select options

2- Check the Arabic locale available from the list, or add your own locale and enable it.

3- Go back to alfresco share, click (normal click) on the fast locale switcher icon and select an Arabic locale

Then the page will be refreshed, and alfresco share will be rendered with arabic strings !
