Language FR & DE modules for NAV 2017

phil_draper

I could not find any downloads other than for 2016 on the MS site. I tried these with my 2017 install and they do not display. Probably because they install into the folder structure in a folder named 90 and I need them in the 100 structure. Are there any language modules available for 2017 or do I just need to copy the 90 folder structure to my 100 structure?

Mixing versions sounds like a very bad idea. Download the french and german installation kits from Customer Source for 2017.

Hi Phil,

Microsoft has moved the downloads section to Microsoft Support site.

Got it all now and installed - thanks for the reply and link.
I am a bit confused why there are still a lot of English words in the screens as it looks like the screens have not been fully translated. IS this normal or have I missed something with the install/setup? I followed the steps on the web page and imported compiles etc.

Did you change the language on the client? See attached.

Phil,

Besides the obvious suggestion by kylehardin, I believe your database does not contain adequate translation.

I think you're using a W1 database instead of a FR or NL. You should then translate your application code (use Caption ML) or merge your application code with Microsoft Localization and translate your specific code (too).

P.S: I do not recommend you to use the same database for FR and NL localizations.

Hi All.

I think need help with this nav2017 language pack.

I have a physical server with Regional Setting Eglish (or German) and I need to have RU-layer.

I downloaded language part from the MS side (it was "main start page" for NAV 2017 without CU) and did all actions from the page "How to: Install Language Modules" (docs.microsoft.com/.../how-to--install-language-modules).

The results:

- received ru-RU language folder in the "..\100\RoleTailored Client\" for Server only and I can't install .flm file (received something like ..scheme changed..)

- when I change the layer for NAV DEV Environment I received something like ?@?@?

- I can't change the language for NAV 2017 WinClient

and question - does anyone received language correctly?

EN/DE use codepage 850, RU codepage 866, also different SQL collations are employed so these will not merge well into one database without some hassle.
Here is a long thread in German with links and scripts about this endeavour.
