I wanted to change the locale of my discourse site from _en to _hu. When I did that in the admin settings / basic settings, the page came back white with a 404 error on the hu.js.
javascripts/locales/hu.js
Any recommendation how to set it back to english would be much appreciated!
I can’t see hu as the available locale?
What language did you choose? Also, what’s the URL of your Discourse instance?
The instance is discourse.inepex.net .
I choose HU. There was a HU locale, without searching I just rolled down in the list and found it. (hu for hungarian of course)
Strange, I don’t see “HU” locale on my local Discourse instance, or here on meta.
Anyways to fix this issue, run these commands on your server:
cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
rails c
SiteSetting.default_locale = 'en'
This should change your locale back to English.
We will try it and notify you with the results, thanks for the help.
Hello again!
It turned out that we here at my company created a test locale, but it wasn’t finished (not even started, per se), but we had a file remaining on the server that the discourse thought to be a valid locale file. That’s why I could find _hu, even if it wasn’t finished on our side.
So the mistake was on our side as we didn’t cooperate and talk it through.
Still, it might pose a bug, as discourse didn’t know how to handle this situ but came back blank instead. Might be worth looking into.
Thanks for the help and the quick response, saved my day. Cheers!
