    1. Question
    2. Answer
    How to change the language for a X-Services response? Can it be another language then English by default?
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 22, 23
    • Relevant for Installation Type: Dedicated-Direct, Direct, Local, Total Care

    Question

    Is it possible to change the standard language for X-Services from English to e.g. German? Currently one can only add "&con_lng=ger" to a request like 

     

    http://servername:8991/X?op=read-item&library=xxx50&item_barcode=293&con_lng=ger

     

    in order to get the output in German language. 

     

    Is there a configuration file where German could be set as default language?

    Answer

    It is not possible to make the default language of the X services be anything but English.  ENG is the hard-coded default and, unlike "regular WEB" (/F), it is not read from a global variable (like www_con_lng for /F).
