Importing a New Language to Your Repository

After you successfully import your Siebel Repository in its base language, you can add additional languages to it.

By adding a new language to your repository, you populate rows of localizable information, which allows Siebel Business Applications to better operate in the new language.

Regardless of how many Siebel Business Applications you are using (such as Siebel Sales, Siebel Service, Siebel Marketing), you perform this step only once for each language you want to install.

CAUTION:  If you subsequently add a new language to your database after you complete your initial installation with your initial set of languages, leave the Gateway Name Server Address and Enterprise Server Name fields blank when prompted for these values by the Database Server Configuration utility. If you enter values in these fields, an error occurs.

To import a repository in a secondary language under Windows

1. After installing multilingual seed data (see Installing Multilingual Seed Data) launch the Database Server Configuration utility.
2. Follow the steps in Importing the Siebel Repository to Step 3 (Select Repository Operation) and then select the Add Language to an Existing Repository option.

   To continue, click Next.

3. In the Language Selection screen, specify the new repository language you are adding.

   To continue, click Next.

4. Follow the remaining steps in listed in Importing the Siebel Repository up to Step 9.
5. In the Import Repository Name screen, indicate the following:
   • Import Repository Name

     Type the designated name for this Siebel Repository or accept the default.

   • Localized Repository File Name

     If you are importing a secondary language repository on top of your base-language repository, either accept the default installation path and file name for this repository or type another valid installation path.

     To continue, click Next.

6. On the Log Output Directory screen, accept the default name or type another valid name to indicate where log output files are to be created.
7. When the runnow message box appears, click OK to apply the configuration now, or click Cancel to apply it later.

   If a program or system error occurs and you need to rerun the Siebel Upgrade Wizard, you can do so, starting at the point at which the wizard failed, by navigating to the SIEBSRVR_ROOT\bin directory and entering:

   siebupg.exe /m master_imprep_lang.ucf.

8. In the Configuration Parameter Review screen, review the configuration values you entered on the previous configuration screens and then click Finish.

   The Database Server Configuration utility displays the item to be imported.

9. To begin, click OK.

   A window appears, displaying information about installation activities. A message appears when the installation is completed.

   To verify that the installation was successful, review the log files. See About Reviewing the Log Files for Repository Import.

   TIP:   Locate the file master_imprep_lang.ucf in the SIEBSRVR_ROOT\bin directory and print it out, so that you have a record of the values you entered.

To import a repository in a secondary language under UNIX

1. Perform the steps described in the UNIX section of Importing the Siebel Repository up to Step 3 (Repository Operations screen).
2. Select option 2 - Add language to an existing Repository.
3. In the Language Selection screen, specify the new repository language you are adding.

   NOTE:  Siebel Systems does not support installation of any language other than U.S. English on top of a base Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, or Korean Language Pack.

4. Answer the remaining prompts with the values that you previously entered when you completed the procedure described in the UNIX section of Importing the Siebel Repository until the Import Repository Name screen is displayed (Step 9).
5. Enter the name of the repository you want to import.
6. On the Repository File Name screen, if you are importing a secondary language repository on top of your base-language repository, specify the default installation path and file name for this repository or type another valid installation path.
7. On the Common Parameters screen, accept the default name or type another valid name to indicate where log output files are to be created.
8. Review the values you previously entered for accuracy. If the values are correct, launch the Siebel Upgrade Wizard (srvrupgwiz) by entering 1 (Yes).

   If a program or system error occurs you can rerun the Wizard, starting at the point at which the wizard failed, by navigating to $SIEBSRVR_ROOT/bin and entering:

   srvrupgwiz /m master_imprep_lang.ucf

   To verify that the installation was successful, review the log files. See About Reviewing the Log Files for Repository Import.

   TIP:   Locate the file master_imprep_lang.ucf in the $SIEBSRVR_ROOT/bin directory and print it out, so that you have a record of the values you entered.
