confirmed; I have no idea what the problem is.

[dimiro1]

I think I know the problem. The .mo files compiled from .po files are not in being versioned. To solve the problem I set the following configuration in Instance section in buildout.

environment-vars = zope_i18n_compile_mo_files true

So to fix the problem you have to put .mo files in git, or to put an explanation in Readme file.

[hvelarde]

no, .mo file should never be in VCS; also, we are extending from a configuration that has already that variable set:

@dimiro1 are you using your own buildout? because I can't reproduce this with nitf's buildout...

[hvelarde]

I was using package buildout and I ran into the same problem

[jpgimenez]

@hvelarde could you check your parts/instance/etc/zope.conf? should have this lines...

<environment>
    zope_i18n_compile_mo_files true
</environment>

[jpgimenez]

@hvelarde btw, portuguese or spanish?

[dimiro1]

Yes @jpgimenez I am using a custom buildout.

[jpgimenez]

ok @dimiro1, so your solution of setting "environment-vars = zope_i18n_compile_mo_files true" is the right one, look at: http://developer.plone.org/i18n/internationalisation.html#i18ndude http://vincentfretin.ecreall.com/articles/my-translation-doesnt-show-up-in-plone-4

[dimiro1]

OK. @jpgimenez. It fixes the problem.

[jpgimenez]

@hvelarde closed?

[hvelarde]

the problem for me what other: pt-BR translations are not used if you set your site language as pt.
