editing translation not visible

[ateliernz]

Question: I edited /translations/messages.nl.xlf

I cleared cache. I ran bin/console lint:xliff translations to validate - a lot of errors, but not for my file.

However, I don't see any changes. I think I do something wrong.

a lot of errors, but not for my file.

What errors?

[ateliernz]

for all .xliff-files:
ERROR in translations/invoice-numbergenerator.da.xliff

• There is a mismatch between the language included in the file name ("invoice-numbergenerator.da.xliff") and the "da" value used in the "target-language" attribute of the file.

Can you upgrade to the latest Kimai version? That error does not exist here.

[ateliernz]

last time i tried upgrading from 1.6.2 to 1.7 went wrong. It's not really easy to do from command line if you're not used to like me. I got some errors and I couldn't fix it/understand it, so I put the folders and files back from backup and it works now.

Installing also wasn't easy on a Synology NAS. Trick was to install php7.2 on Synology, install composer.phar in the kimai2 folder via command line and run sudo php72 composer.phar instead of composer commands.

Do you know that article: https://www.kimai.org/documentation/synology.html#updating-kimai

But back to topic: translation files should be reloaded when the cache was cleared.
Without seeing the file, I cannot help.

[ateliernz]

Never found it, but that looks promising!

I guess: first update, then, if still existing, shoot this issue again?

[kevinpapst]

Its your system ... at some point an upgrade should be done.
I could have a look at the translation file anyways, but need to know what you changed.

Well, I copied the nl file for backup and edited the original like this
[edit: because the dutch translation looks like flemish, I needed a dutch-dutch version. eventually, i want to make a language variant nl-NL . Now I know how it feels to be the 'variant' instead of the general language!]

[kevinpapst]

hahaha ... but actually NL should be nl_NL and not nl_BE or whatever the code for flemish is.
Inviting @1willem into the discussion.
And I cannot download the file, always run into a timeout. Please attach it in your post

Works fine on my end. Just copied the file to my installation and I see e.g. "Mijn uren" as label for the timesheet menu

[ateliernz]

Thanks for testing. This issue can be closed. First I need to update my installation
