Relaunch the browser and go back to the FIM administration to confirm the problem has been resolved.

Note:  This is being reviewed by RSA to see if it is suitable for a patch or procedure to be developed to resolve this issue within the FIM 3.0 system

For 3.0 see http://bugzilla.na.rsa.net/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26594  This was noticed for Japanese because they tested Japense in addition to USA - however the problem affects all non_US browsers.

For 3.1  see http://bugzilla.na.rsa.net/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45661 

The following script can be used to create the required i18n files inh the correct location.  With instructions as follows:

1)  Create a script called addlang.cmd in c:\temp and insert the content as below.  Edit thr INSTALLDIR value to match the WebLogic domain folder (note this has only been tested for running on WebLogic)

2)  Copy FIM30-all.ear  to c:\temp

3)  From the command line run the script with a single parameter for the i18n language required.  As an example, for support of en_au you would enter "addlang en_au"

4)  Take the generated fim30-all-ear-new.ear and replace the FIM30-all.ear you used during the FIM 3.0 installation

5)  Use the WebLogic console to undeploy the current FIM30 code and deploy the updated FIM30-all.ear

Note:  After (re)deployment the WebLogic system(s) should be stopped and restarted
