Обсуждение: Where to find translation of Postgres error messages?
Hi, I'd like to use a Postgres 8 server from different locales (english, german, hungarian, etc.). I can implement gettext into my client application so the only thing i'd need (at least I think so) is a .po (or an .mo) file for each locale. I looked into Postgres installation directories and found several .mo files under the locale directory. But I wasn't able to find the string "no password supplied" for example in neither of them. Where can I obtain a message translation or at least a gettext template? Are there translations available for the above mentioned languages?

Hi John, thank you very much for your suggestion. I downloaded the file (hu.po) and tried to find the given error message in it (using a text editor) with no success. There was no e.g. "SQL Error: fe_sendauth: no password supplied" lines in the po file. A also searched over the de.po and no such lines. I also tried to search for portions of the message. No result. :( What should I do?

No result. :( Apparently that string is not localized. It is defined in libpq-fe.h: /* Define the string so all uses are consistent. */ #define PQnoPasswordSupplied "fe_sendauth: no password supplied\n" John DeSoi, Ph.D. http://pgedit.com/ Power Tools for PostgreSQL

I think we deliberately don't localize that one because it'd break
various application-level code that relies on being able to recognize
that string. (Which is pretty yucky, of course, but until someone
gets around to implementing SQLSTATE error codes for libpq's internal
error reports, there's not a lot of choice.)
