Hi

I am getting the following error in my system:

Distro: Ubuntu Hardy AMD64
Software: Wine-1.0rc3, POL-3.0.1, Python-2.5.2
Desktop: Gnome
Error Details:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/mainwindow.py", line 572, in <module>
lng.Lang()
File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/lib/lng.py", line 13, in __init__
presLan = gettext.translation("pol", Variables.playonlinux_env+"/lang/locale", languages=[locale_[0]])
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/gettext.py", line 484, in translation
raise IOError(ENOENT, 'No translation file found for domain', domain)
IOError: [Errno 2] No translation file found for domain: 'pol'

I have tried installing the gettext package. But, it doesn't seem to work.

Thanks & Regards

I'm having the same problem. Just installed POL via the ubuntu hardy repository

I'm running x86 but everything else is the same as previous poster (st3pp3nw0lf)

Thanks

I get the same problem too.

Distro: Ubuntu Hardy 32bit
Software: Wine-1.0rc3, POL-3.0.1, Python-2.5.2

And it seems that some French guys are having the same problems here:
http://www.playonmac.com/en/topic-1613-PlayOnLinux_sur_Fedora8__No_translation_file_found_for_domain_pol.html

I can run POL using a completely new user, but can't run it with my current user.
It used to run well with my current user

hi

any further progess on this bug? Is it solved?

thanks

Thanks to Erwan on the French Forums.

Solution:
1) open "sudo vim /usr/share/playonlinux/python/lib/lng.py"
2) edit the line:
locale_ = locale.getdefaultlocale()
replacing it with
locale_ = locale.getpreferredencoding()
3) save and quit

Now playonlinux runs fine.
