Incorrect date formatting on Russian Locale

Vuizur commented 2 years ago

[x] I have read the Filing Issues and subsequent “How to Get Help” sections of the documentation.
[x] I have searched the issues (including closed ones) and believe that this is not a duplicate.

OS version and name: Windows 10
Python version: Python 3.10
Pelican version: Pelican 4.8.0

Issue

I am following the tutorial and have created a new project. The DEFAULT_LANG constant in pelicanconf has been set to "en", my system, however, is set to Russian.

I pasted the example MD file into the content folder and generate the HTML. However when I open the webpage I get as the published date Published: ?? 03 ??????? 2010. (I think this is probably caused by my PC language being set to Russian.) Here is the generated index.html file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
        <meta name="generator" content="Pelican" />
        <title>Language Tech</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="/theme/css/main.css" />
</head>

<body id="index" class="home">
        <header id="banner" class="body">

You probably need to define a LOCALE setting in your configuration.

Vuizur commented 2 years ago

Thanks for the answer! Setting the locale to anything like "ru", "en", or "de-DE" (which Powershell outputs as the system locale) works great with the desired result.

I have no idea why the default locale would not work though.
