HOW TO
Instructions provided describe how to setup regional settings (locale) on Unix for ArcGIS Server. By using the MainWin Control Panel (mwcontrol) the Regional Settings for ArcGIS Server on Unix can be set.
Note:
At 9.2 and above the ArcGIS Server initialization runs a script to setup the mw regional locale. This script will OVERWRITE any changes made manually in this procedure. Therefore in most cases these steps are not necessary. Restart ArcGIS Server to engage the changes to the UNIX machine's locale.
Code:
<ArcGISServer location>/scripts/stopserver
Code:
source <ArcGISServer location>/servercore/.Server/init_server.sh
or
. <ArcGISServer location>/servercore/.Server/init_server.sh
Code:
source init_server.csh
Code:
. <ArcGISServer location>/servercore/.Server/init_server.sh
Code:
mwadm start
Code:
mwcontrol
Note:
If required, specify the Number, Currency, Time and Date options in this dialog as well.
Code:
mwadm stop
Code:
<ArcGISServer location>/scripts/startserver
Note:
If running 9.2 or above, any changes made in steps 1-10 will be reverted back to the default installation locale once ArcGIS Server is restarted. See note at beginning of article
