Problems with foreign languages #304

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
While merging Russian and Finnish into the list of supported languages, I found 
several other issues which apparently have been introduced by the latest GS 
site updates:

- If you select Spanish (for example) as the display language, perform a search 
for "nearest caches", and then click on a PMO cache as BM, you'll get an error 
500 page. English, German, Catalan will give you the "I won't show you much, 
but at least the cache name and ratings" page. - Left as an exercise to 
identify working and non-working languages (Finnish belongs to the latter 
category).
GeoToad cannot do anything about this, I'm afraid.

- When performing WID or GUID queries, you will get a wrong container size (as 
the corresponding word in the selected language is used, instead of the English 
equivalent). This may break your GSAK or device. I'm working on a fix for this, 
hoping to merge it before the upcoming release.

The Spanish/Finnish/... "error 500" issue has been fixed by GS in one of the 
last server updates. Has someone tested the patch to get the container size 
from HTL internals, not the string presented in the table? Feedback is hughly 
appreciated!

This issue is believed to be addressed in the latest release.
