Dynamic (session) language setting not working in external ITS v6.20

[former_member848108]

Hi everybody,

We have upgraded from ITS 2.0 to 6.20 patchlevel 35. In the service (srvc) file following parameters have been set;

~languages tr, en

~language tr

So we want our users to log on in Turkish (tr) language, but they have to be able to switch to English (en) after the logon.

This could be done in the 2.0 version without any problem using the appropriate querystring like

http://.../~flN0YXRlPTExNTguMDA0LjA0LjA0?~language=en

But it's not possible anymore in 6.20. I have checked the releates notes and forum posts, but still no solution. The intersting point is, we can switch the language at the logon page, but not after the logon page anymore. (following links work :

http://.../wgate/zabc/!?~language=en
http://.../wgate/zabc/!?~language=tr

)

Has anyone got an idea?

Best regards,

Ozcan.

Hello Ozcan,

That is not the correct usage of ~languages and ~language. The ~language parameter is used to specify the language for the service. There should not be a way to change it. The ~languages parameter should specify which languages the user is allowed to select from during logon. Obviously, if ~language is set then the ~languages parameter is of no use.

If it was possible to do what you have specified before then it was not intended.

Hi Edgar,

You are right, I had to redesign the login page so that users choose their language before they log-in. Switching to another language than the login language during the session is not possible anymore. Thanks for your reply.
