      Hi

      i'm trying to set my XOCE Web Gui in french.
      for that i click on my profile icon, and change language to French
      effect is immediate.

      But if i close my browser, and come back again, language came back to english.
      do i forget to save somewhere ?
      i dont see any save profil button

        @Chico008 My guess is that it is unable to save the changes to the database. Could be a rights issue or a read-only database. Are other user settings being retained or are they lost as well?

        Have you checked the logs and the browser console for any error messages?

          other setting are keeps, like default research filter.

          which log can i check for this ?

          nothing has been done to the database since XOCE has been installed.

                @Chico008 Is your VM up-to-date with the latest source code? I don't see this on my XO, so I'm guessing that it's a configuration issue on your side. How did you go about installing XO?

                        @Chico008 I have a VM built with this same script, and it works as expected. You may want to build a new XO VM and retest.

                          My VM is a Ubuntu server 24.01
                          i'll try on a debian 12, maybe a docker image to check if it works better or not.

                          edit : tested on another server OS (Debian), and tested a docker version
                          Still the same
                          i can change language, it's set for the sessions running.
                          but when i come back and login again, laguage set to english by default again.

                          My browser clear cache and cookie on exit.

                            That's why. Your pref are stored in a cookie.

                              @olivierlambert too bad, could be better if pref could be stored in database instead >_<

                                Why? I mean you are the first person to ask this. It's more work to do that and I'm not sure to really see the value 🤔 A cookie is the perfect simple way to store info that are from your same browser/session, so it's very logical.

                                  Yeah, I don't see the value in having to keep a user preference within XO itself either.. just don't clear your cookies. It's what they are meant for.
