In my ASP MVC 3 site I added a folder Resources with 2 Resx files Strings.resx and Strings.fr-FR.resx, Acces modifier public, and provided translation.

I added in web.config:

<system.web>
    <globalization culture="Auto" uiCulture="Auto"/>

and

<configuration>
  <appSettings>
    <add key="culture" value="fr-FR" />
    <add key="uiculture" value="fr-FR" />

I also forced french language in CurrentCulture and CurrentUICulture in Application_AuthenticateRequest and Application_BeginRequest in global.asax.

The problem is when displaying site in localhost, the language is translated in french.

When deploying the site on the server (after building the msi in a WebSetup project) The strings are not translated in french language although both culture and ui culture are "fr-FR" (displayed them in input hidden).

What can be the problem? Maybe something is missing in the config server? I can't find any issue about that in the internet.

Thanks.

Check if you have published the folder containing the translation to fr-FR, in my case I did the translation in en-US and in the bin folder there is a sub-folder called en-US that contains the dll of the resource with the translation.

It could be that the production server has different language sets and with that 

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture

is set automatically... but this is just a guess since I do not know enough about your implementation...

but...

Here is a good, detailed article on that topic...
