Creating Language Subdirectories and Copying Language-Specific Files for an Unshipped Language on the Siebel Server

This topic is part of Creating New Language Subdirectories and Copying Language-Specific Files.

Use the following procedure to create language subdirectories and copy language-specific files for an unshipped language on the Siebel Server. Note the following:

  • On Windows, the directories mentioned in this procedure are in SIEBSRVR_ROOT\bin (configuration files and binary files) and SIEBSRVR_ROOT\msgtmpl.

  • On UNIX, the directories are in SIEBSRVR_ROOT/bin (configuration files), SIEBSRVR_ROOT/lib (binary files), and SIEBSRVR_ROOT/msgtmpl.

For more information about these directories, see Siebel Installation Guide.

To create language subdirectories and copy language-specific files for an unshipped language on the Siebel Server

  1. On the Siebel Server computer or operating system instance, do one of the following in the directory SIEBSRVR_ROOT:

    • (Windows) Create a new language subdirectory XXX under bin.

    • (UNIX) Create a new language subdirectory XXX under bin. Then create XXX under lib.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • (Windows) Copy the configuration files and binary files from bin\YYY to bin\XXX.

    • (UNIX) Copy the configuration files from bin/YYY to bin/xxx. Then copy the binary files from lib/YYY to lib/xxx.

    The configuration files (that is, the CFG files such as uagent.cfg for Siebel Call Center) will be used by the Application Object Managers that you will create for new language XXX.

    Note: After completing the localization tasks, you must recopy the files from YYY to XXX in each applicable location after each time that you install a new Siebel CRM release, to keep your localized product up to date. For more information about installing Siebel CRM, see Siebel Installation Guide.
  3. Do one of the following:

    • (Windows) Create a new language subdirectory XXX under msgtmpl. Then copy the contents of msgtmpl\YYY to msgtmpl\XXX.

    • (UNIX) Create a new language subdirectory XXX under msgtmpl. Then copy the contents of msgtmpl/YYY to msgtmpl/XXX.
