PEL uses Gettext for localization, and thus your system must fulfill a few requirements: • PHP must have support for the Gettext extension. Most installations of PHP already has this, but please double-check with phpinfo() before asking for help on the mailinglist. • The system must be setup to generate locales for the languages into which PEL has been translated. Again, most commercial webhosts would have their systems configured to deal with all locales, but if you’re installing PEL on your own server you’ll probably have to reconfigure it. How to configure the locales differ from system to system. With the Debian GNU/Linux distribution you should run dpkg-reconfigure locales and then select all locales that you want your system to support. Restart your webserver after changing the locale setup to make the changes effective.
