The forum

only a few days !!!! .... first I focuses my efforts in running Sourcesafe, and now... welll.. it would be great not to have this starting error...

Ok ..

You can try to open /Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/lib/lng.py with a text editor

Line 31, you have a blank line

Write (respect the indent) :

locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,'es_ES.utf-8')

Save the file and retry

Now I have at the bottom of /Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/lib/lng.py

.
.
.

class iLang(object):
     def __init__(self):
          try:
               languages = os.listdir(Variables.playonlinux_env+'/lang/locale')
               locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,'es_ES.utf-8')
               langid = wx.LANGUAGE_DEFAULT
               localedir = os.path.join(Variables.playonlinux_env, "lang/locale")
               domain = "pol"
               mylocale = wx.Locale(langid)
               mylocale.AddCatalogLookupPathPrefix(localedir)
               mylocale.AddCatalog(domain)
               
               mytranslation = gettext.translation(domain, localedir, [mylocale.GetCanonicalName()], fallback = True)
               mytranslation.install()
          except:
               pass

I saved the file, reboot the Mac, and re launch POM and I get the same error... :-(

Sorry.. I don't want you waste your time for this little error...

Normal that the ln -s didn't work
Undo the last thing I have told you to do (No need to reboot)

And try this :

Type in PlayOnLinux console :

cd $PLAYONLINUX/lang/po
cat es.po | sed s/es_ES.utf-8/es_AR.utf-8/ > es_AR.po
msgfmt es_AR.po
rm ../locale/es_AR
mkdir -p ../locale/es_AR/LC_MESSAGES
mv messages.mo ../locale/es_AR/LC_MESSAGES/pol.mo

ok... removed line from lng.py
executed commands (copy & paste) from PlayOnLinux Console with no result errors
relaunching POM and i get still the same error...

I don't know where the problem is.

It seems that PlayOnMac think you are in Argentina.

(btw, what's happening if you type locale in a terminal ?)

pep$ locale
LANG="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

For the moment, I have no idea. I think the bug comes from wxpython on OSX

I will try to fix it if I have more information

Sorry

ok.. thank you for your help... it is a pleasure to contact with people like you !!!!! ... despite the problem has not been solved I will use POM because I think it is a great app.

Thanks a lot !!!! if you need some additional info that can help to solve this 'X-FILE' please ask me !!!!

Greetings from Barcelona (in Spain not in Argentina .. hehehe)... btw.. I love Argentina !

Use this command, it should solve your problem :

defaults write -g AppleLocale "es_ES"

It doesn't work... :-(

Hi
I have the same error message trying to open for the first time another software that uses phyton (GRASS 6.4)

I am still trying to solve this. Same problem, I am from Spain, language is set to Spanish but it appears same error message: "cannot set locale to 'es_AR'"and application ends.

My computer is a new MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.4
It seems to be a problem among phyton, mac and the spanish language ¿?

hope it helps to find the problem

Raul

Same problem here, latest POM (2.4.4), my Mac is set to Spanish with Mexico as the locale. Can't do anything besides terminating the program. I can bypass this by directly executing the binary from a terminal.
