Issue with the Strings at Command Prompt

Valid on Windows and Linux

Symptom:

When I run commands in a localized environment, I see issues with the strings at Command Prompt.

Solution:

To fix the command prompt strings issue, do the following changes:

(For Windows)

This problem occurs when the default code page of the environment is not supported.

For example, when default code page for German and French is 850; Command Prompt strings appear erratically. Note that, for German and French, Client Automation supports code page 1252. You can reset the code page at the environment settings by running the following command:

chcp 1252

(For Linux)

You can reset the Language parameter in the the following way:

1. Navigate to the cd\etc\sysconfig folder, open i18n.
2. Modify the Lang parameter in the following way:

   Example:
   (For German) Lang=de_DE.UTF-8

   (For French) Lang=fr_FR.UTF-8
