Hi Zhang,

I have a brand new installation, open source, new email users are being created with a blank language. This causes the language to be what looks like Polish when you go to edit the user. I have done a
update mailbox set language = 'en_US';
to correct the exiting entries.

'mailbox.language' is used by iRedAdmin, if you set a global language in iRedAdmin config file (settings.py), it will use this global setting if no per-user language is set.

Zhang,

in /var/www/iredadmin/settings.py
this is set.
default_language = 'en_US'

should it be a different variable?

It sounds like a bug of iRedAdmin open source edition, i will try to reproduce this issue and fix it.

Could you please be clearer about this description:

*) You login to iRedAdmin as global admin or normal admin?
*) What's the web ui language of this logged in admin account?
*) Does it happen every time you try to edit different users' profiles?

Hi Zhang, I also have this issue.
In my case iRedAdmin was installed just last night on a clean Ubuntu 14.04 image.
When I create a new email account the Preferred Language dropdown is always set to the first entry in the drop down (it reminds me of the characters seen in the game DayZ so I'm guessing its Polish or Russian) after selecting "English (US)" and saving changes it is updated successfully.

Given that its the first entry in the drop-down list my guess is that the related field in the database isn't being set properly during account creation and a default (first) value is being selected.

As its just a normal user and not an admin I can't use that account to log into iredadmin and check the ui but I can confirm that roundcube's interface was English (prior to setting the language correctly).

This has happened with every new account I have created.

If you require any further information please don't hesitate to ask.

Cheers,

Phillip

Even without checking the source code, i can confirm it's a bug of iRedAdmin open source edition. I will come back with a fix later.

Hi Zhang,
Thanks for your help with this issue.

I just applied the fix shown in your commit and now when I create a new user the "Preferred language" field is blank. Implying that no preferred language has been set.

Am I correct in assuming that this is the expected behaviour or should it be defaulting to a value I can set in a configuration file somewhere?

Cheers,

Phillip

It's expected, because you didn't set a preferred language for newly created user.
