Generator-jhipster: Internationalization options not working for start.jhipster.tech

[gomesp]

Overview of the issue

I generated two apps using https://start.jhipster.tech/#/generate-application

Their repos are located here: https://github.com/gomesp/amigosecreto and https://github.com/gomesp/amigosecreto2

The first repo was generated with internationalization options (English as default and PT-BR as secondary).

When starting the app I get a 404 in my browser console. It seems that one of the i18n files is not being generated.

ERROR {…}_body: "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Cannot GET /i18n/en.json

I confirm the bug. It concerns projects generated with start.jhipster.tech

When choosing additional languages, the native language is not added to the other languages.
Here your .yo-rc.json :

    "nativeLanguage": "en",
    "languages": [
      "pt-br"
    ],

instead of:

    "nativeLanguage": "en",
    "languages": [
      "en", // <---- missing en
      "pt-br"
    ],

Only @jdubois can fix it. I assign this ticket to you.

[jdubois]

Yes, I will fix this

[jdubois]

It's corrected (will be released in a few days, I'm doing some big work at the moment there). For the moment, the workaround is to keep the "native" language selected in the language list (anyway, it doesn't make much sense to say your native language is English, and then de-select it in the supported languages!)

[gomesp]

@jdubois Thanks for clarifying it. I didn't realise I had to keep English in the supported languages. I thought it had been added by default as the native.

Thanks for the quick response.

[jdubois]

Yes that's a stupid mistake on my side, and only for JHipster Online!
Thanks for the report!!!
