How to add/create support for new language in WebSphere Portal?

As you all know WebSphere Portal has already been translated into a number of languages but if you would like to add another new language into it (for example: Vietnamese Language) you can easily do that by following the below simple steps.

• Open the CreateLanguage.xml file available under following folder \IBM \ WebSphere \ PortalServer \ doc \ xml-samples \. You can create a copy of this xml file as per your requirement or use an existing one.

<request xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" type="update"
                xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="PortalConfig_8.0.0.xsd">
<portal action="locate">
        <language action="update" bidi="false" domain="rel" locale="vi">
              <localedata locale="en">
                  <title>Vietnamese</title>
              </localedata>
       </language>
</portal>
</request>

• Use the xmlaccess utility to run the following command.

xmlaccess.bat -url localhost:10040/wps/config -in CreateLanguage.xml -out result.xml

xmlaccess.sh -url localhost:10040/wps/config -in CreateLanguage.xml -out result.xml 

where CreateLanguage.xml is the input xml file and result.xml is the output xml file.

Note: You should have admin rights to import the new language.
