Unable to make i18N work

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. set USE_I18N = True and LANGUAGE_CODE = 'sk' in seetings.py

2. add 'django.core.context_processors.i18n' to the list of 
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS in settings.py

3. create following template and save it as 'i18n.html' in 'templates' 
directory:

{% load i18n %}
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
    <title>i18n</title>
</head>
<body>
    {% trans "Slovak" %}
</body>
</html>

4. create following request handler in 'views.py':

def i18n(request):
    return render_to_response('../templates/i18n.html')

5. add following url pattern to 'urlpatterns' in 'urls.py':

(r'^i18n$', i18n)

6. hit created page http://localhost:8000/i18n

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Because Slovak language is a part of Django's available localizations a its po 
file is in place, you should be getting localized meessage, i.e. 'slovenský'.

Instead the 'Slovak' string is not replaced/translated.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Google App Engine SDK 1.3.7
Google App Engine Helper for Django r105
Django 1.2.1

Please provide any additional information below.
Django is provided as zip archive

Do you get any errors or debugging output to suggest why the translation is not 
being picked up correctly?

Do you have any insight into what is going wrong here?

I tried to reproduce the problem and with the same result. No error is 
reported. I was using django.zip. Then I unzipped django.zip a removed 
django.zip file and it worked. Looks like there's some problem with i18n when 
using zipped django. 
(I tested on django version 1.2.3)
