How Language Selection Works

The interactive Java ES installer runs in the language specified by the operating system locale setting on the host. The following languages are available:

• English

• French

• German

• Japanese

• Korean

• Spanish

• Simplified Chinese

• Traditional Chinese

If your operating system language is not listed, the installer runs in English. The installer automatically installs English versions of all Java ES components. By default, multilingual packages are selected when components are selected for installation.

The installer cannot install additional language packages for previously-installed components. However, you can use the pkgadd, rpm, utilities to install localization packages at any time. Language packages are list in Chapter 5, List of Installable Packages, in Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Update 1 Installation Reference for UNIX.
