Red Hat Bugzilla 1007833 0 unspecified CLOSED Installer: Missing translations for EAP 6.2 2021-02-22 00:41:40 UTC

Internal Links: 1007833

Description Petr Kremensky 2013-10-21 08:33:57 UTC
Description of problem:
We still have problem with installer once we miss some translated texts. There are three cases for missing property:
 - installer will show property's id
 - installer won't show any text
 - installer will stuck
We should force installer to use English text once translation is not available to avoid these situations.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 EAP 6.2.0.ER6

How reproducible:
 always

Steps to Reproduce:
 1. Run gui installation, use Deutsch. Skip into post-install configuration screen using default values.
 2. On post-install screen select to install Password-Vault.
 3. Enter "test" string into Iterationszählung input text field and press Next (Weiter) button.

Actual results:
 - installer will stuck

Expected results:
 - Error dialog is thrown with English string

Additional info:
 - see BZ1007833 for installer translations status
 - we did something similar for logging see JBPAPP6-820

Comment 1 Francisco Canas 2013-10-22 14:04:39 UTC
The hanging issue described above was actually caused by a separate bug in izpack. It's fix will be present in the next ER.

Additionally, I've now modified izpack to use a 'fallback' langpack when a string can't be found in the user-selected langpack. For the installer the fallback will be english. 

See:

Comment 2 Petr Kremensky 2013-11-01 14:19:53 UTC
Verified on EAP 6.2.0.ER7 installer.

Installer will now use English when translated string is missing.

Greate job!
