Hi friends,

my english is not good - i hope you understand me!

Yesterday i downloaded the german Drupal version (6.12) .... I uploaded to server, make a new DB and Drupal asked "Installation in English or german" ...

I click german - all follow installation-text is in german now ...

The installation finished without problems .... nice - i think but by my first Login in "Admin/Administer" i see - its all in English .... i am looking in "Administer - > site Configuration -> Languages" - there is "german" as default and enabled .... but the left menu and all text in Administer are in english beyond .....

The german de.po file is online - in this file all words are correct translated ....

I installed Drupal on other server - but there is the same problem!

What i make wrong?

Can anyone help me please!

Regards Matthias

Can you change the language for your admin user?

If that doesn't work, this is what I did:

I downloaded the English version and then downloaded the German translations 6.x-1.0-rc1 from http://drupal.org/project/de

You unpack this file into the main Drupal directory.

Of course, since I have my default language as English, I had to enable the multilingual core modules at this point. I'm not sure if you will have to do this.

Now go to a Site building -> Translate interface -> Refresh to import any translations which are missing. Be sure to tick all the check boxes that apply.

I hope this helps.
