I have an application in ASP.NET MVC 5.2.3 with localized satellite assemblies installed by NuGet to show pt-BR validation messages downloaded in:

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.pt-br/

It works and loads all pt-BR localized strings in my development environment, but when I publish in one of our servers the messages still showed in en-US.

The screenshot bellow shows some information about MVC Version and Culture and UI Culture:

enter image description here

It seems that the resource dll wasn't loaded, but, the application is running in pt-BR culture.

The resource DLL System.Web.Mvc.resources.dll is found in /bin/pt-BR folder.

The web.config globalization section is configured:

<!-- language: lang-html -->

    <globalization culture="pt-BR" uiCulture="pt-BR" enableClientBasedCulture="false" />

Anyone has an idea?

  • Please list the entire contents of your `bin` directory, including all subfolders. You should have a localized satellite-assembly: `bin\pt-BR\yourSite.dll`. – Dai May 27 '15 at 21:03
  • I don't have a resource in my site, I just use a resource of System.Web.Mvc for MVC validation messages. My site is entirely in pt-BR. Do I need rename this dll? System.Web.Mvc.resources.dll – Luciano Gerhardt May 28 '15 at 12:17
  • It works in all development machines of my team, even in Debug and Release modes and Published in local IIS, with Windows in portuguese and english. But only when I publish in one of our servers and in customer server it doesn't works. – Luciano Gerhardt May 28 '15 at 12:22
  • Do you have the 'Copy Local' field set to 'True' under your references in Visual Studio for the pt-br dll? It likely works in local due to the dll existing on the local machine. The client/production server does not have a copy of the dll and falls back to the english version. Just a guess. – Pynt Jun 30 '15 at 18:58
  • Yes, System.Web.Mvc have the 'Copy Local' field set to 'True'. According to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1841541/how-to-add-satellite-assemblies-to-a-project-in-visual-studio, the satellite assemblies are copyed with the referenced assembly, and I can see in bin/pt-br/ folder the resource DLL after build. – Luciano Gerhardt Jul 02 '15 at 11:58

It might be a stupid suggestion, but make sure that you reference the localized resource dll's in your .nuspec file so that they are actually included when you package the NuGet bundle.
