Ive solved it by myself.

I changed these two entries under /etc/default/kopano.

KOPANO_LOCALE=“C″
KOPANO_USERSCRIPT_LOCALE=“C″`

to

KOPANO_LOCALE=“de_DE.UTF-8″
KOPANO_USERSCRIPT_LOCALE=“de_DE.UTF-8″`

I have the same problem, but could not fix it with with the solution above.
Does someone have an idea?

Hello @wndkk

run

locale -a

search your language, i bet you want to use de_DE.utf8 (as written by locale -a)
change it in the default folder and unter /etc/sysconfig/kopano

if this wont solve your problem use the localize script from phyton:
https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse/localize-folders

python localize-folders.py --lang de_DE.utf8    # same as in the folders, written as "locale -a" tells you

optional you can check it on one user:

python localize-folders.py --user <username> --lang de_DE.utf8

hope this helps

Neither option worked. I have de_DE and de_CH installed.

After running the script several times, it fixed one user. I had to run it for the other ones seperately until it worked on everyone. Seems kind of random though, don’t know why it won’t work every time.
Thanks though.
