Tutorial – Zabbix Install a New Language
First, we need to install a new language on the Zabbix server Linux.
On the Linux console, use the following commands list the installed languages.
# locale -a
C
C.UTF-8
en_US.utf8
POSIX
In our example, only the English language was installed by default.
Use the following command to list all the languages available.
# cat /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
Take a look at the content of the SUPPORTED file and select the language desired.
Use the following command to install a new language.
After installing a new language, you need to restart the Apache service.
# locale-gen pt_BR.UTF-8
# service apache2 restart
The following command may be used to install a new language instead of the locale-gen command.
# dpkg-reconfigure locales
Select the new language using the graphical interface.
After installing a new language, you need to restart the Apache service.
# service apache2 restart
In our example, the locale-gen command was used to install the Brazilian Portuguese language.
In our example, the dpkg-reconfigure command was used to install the Russian language.
You can now use the Zabbix server dashboard to change the web interface language.
