Setting up language for Virtualmin

I’m set Webmin Language to Russian and Save, but it still English in Webmin and Virtualmin. After change Use language specified by browser? to NoWebmin language is set to Russian, but Virtualmin is still in English.

How to change language in Virtualmin too?

Installed fresh fersion on Debian 8.

thats good question… I have no idea if there is any way where you can check if virtualmin is translated to Russian and perhaps it is… I aint seen any git repo with translation files… anyway you might check this forum link: Translation for Virtualmin/Webmin/Usemin

also @VVS you should consider to use debian 10 instead unsupported and out of date debian 8

  • just saying :wink:

… but it still English in Webmin

You can change the language for logged in user on Webmin/Change Language and Theme page:

Globally it’s done at Webmin/Webmin Configuration/Language and Locale page:


Note: Yes, and you should consider upgrading, as you only have few months before Debian 8 reaches EOL!

Problem is repeated on fresh installation to Debian 10 and fresh Webmin and Virtualmin.

And Webmin is Russian but Virtualmin is English.
