Re: Language Management Critical Error DNN 8.0

you should be able to restart the application pool to bring back the site.
Please check Site settings in Admin menu when switching to the new language and re-save it.

Hi, thanks for your response

I restarted the pool but no effect, i investigated more about this issue and i resolved following exactly this steps:

1 - Admin - languages - add language "català"
2 - Go directly to menu admin - site config and press "update" button to save site settings
3 - Click in the flag "Català" and press another time "update" to save site settings
4 - Change the default language to "Catalá" in admin - languages - tab "Configuration"

regards

Re: Language Management Critical Error DNN 8.0

It looks like there had been issues retrieving language specific site settings - although we tried to implement all possible fallbacks.
I am glad, you were able to solve it, have fun using DNN ;))
