locale.default

Hi

How do I set the locale.default value for the application server? I mean: what format does it need? The wiki help sais: ‘The default locale for clients’. Very helpful!

‘de, CH,’
‘de_CH’
‘de.CH’

If I do ‘locale -a’ in a terminal, I receive ‘de_CH’

What effect does the setting have?

Thanks for help and regards
Birgit

This is by the way the locale for webclients (if the browser will not give us enough information) not for smart clients.
