Setting default_language = en does not work

[iMarkus]

In our case we tried to set 'en' as default language but it did not work so far. In the global.ini.php we found the following lines

; if you want all your users to use Piwik in only one language, disable the LanguagesManager
; plugin, and set this default_language (users won't see the language drop down)
default_language = en

Also with LanguagesManager disabled (removed from global.ini.php), Piwik always switches Language and displays the language drop down in the user settings.

Can anybody reproduce this?

You may need to remove it from global.ini.php and from config.ini.php.

Hi,
I removed it from both configs but it still behaves the same.

I did a small test: removed it from both configs, set the default language to fr and opened piwik with a user that was configured to german before. Piwik was then displayed in french as expected.

Which version did you use? And could you provide a small description how you produce the misbehavior?
