Resolution

This be fixed by changing the language setting at the Studio level. No need to change anything at the system level.

Workaround

= = = = = =

For DesignTime.

1). Open the TIBCOBusinessStudio.ini file. This file can be found at <TIBCO HOME>/studio/<Version>/eclipse .

2). Add the "-Duser.language=en" field and set the value to "en" in the TIBCOBusinessStudio.ini file. The modified file should look like the following.

C:/bw630/install/studio/4.0/eclipse
-vmargs
-Duser.language=en
-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
-Dorg.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=javax.xml.*

3). Close Business Studio and reopen it.

For Runtime.

To mitigate this issue in runtime, update the following line in the appnode_config.ini_template file located under <bw_install_loc>\bw\6.2\config .

"user.language=en"

Once you update the template file, any new node created under that bw-home will have this property in the node config.ini file. To change it in an exisitng appnode, the user has to go to each exiting appnode folder and update the above JVM property in the config.ini file.

<bw_install_loc>\bw\6.2\domains\<<Domain_Name>>\appnodes\<<AppSpaceMame>>\<<AppNodeName>>\config.ini
