Hi,
When i try to install a new language, i gt the error:
Cannot save md5 file.
Where is this file supposed to be saved ?
Thanks in advance.
Ana Sousa.
It should be saved in your moodledata/lang/XX_utf8 folder. If this is not possible, your folder might be not writable by the webserver. Please check the permissions on your moodledata folder.
Hi,
Thank you for your answer.
The web server has permissions to write on that directory, but the problem persists.
Is it possible to manually install the language ?
If so, how ?
Thanks in advance.

hello
i have the same problem, but i partialy solved it this way: because, it seems, that the problem is in the execution of external unzip application and i have no access to execute applications from php code, this error occurs. so - go to the configuration->variable settings and remove the path to external zip application.
then (maybe this will work for you, but i had a problem) edit the file in moodledata/cache/language and add line with your language in the form:
sk_utf8 Slovak (sk)
it seems, that the first string (sk_utf8) means the directory name in the directory moodledata/lang, when the language is stored.
now it should work. should work... ;)

Just unzip the files and copy them to lang. what I don't understand is why the external gunzip settings don't work? Removing them does help.
Made it work this way :
Make sure, the following path's is complete in "Server - System path" settings :
- Path to Zip : /usr/bin/zip
- Path to Unzip : /usr/bin/unzip
The term "path" in Moodle apparently covers both "path" and program file.

CT,
I don't see any ambiguity in the use of the word "path" here. Program files have pathnames just like any other file or folder. They tell us (and other programs) where they are located.
Anyway, I'm glad you got it to work.

If you under linux
chmod your language package and chmod the file *.md5 in your language package.
eg:
chmod 777 moodledata/lang/*_utf8
chmod 777 moodledata/lang/*_utf8 /*_utf8.md5
chmod your language package and chmod the file *.md5 in your language package.
eg:
chmod 777 moodledata/lang/*_utf8
chmod 777 moodledata/lang/*_utf8 /*_utf8.md5
I think the problem is that some no utf8 text may have entered one of your lang files
