no error in log from switching laguage

Danp

@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

@Danp
i'm using XOCE for now for testing

My VM hosting XOCE is a Ubtuntu server 24.04
XOCE installed using this script for github

@Chico008 What does it show for the commit on the About page in 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.

@Danp
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.

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

Chico008

@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.
