@weberdigital

Steps to reproduce

  1. Click on the sharing button on a file or a directory
  2. Share with a user or a group
  3. Send mail by pressing on "Notify by email"

Expected behaviour

The mail shoud be in the preferred language of the recipient.

Actual behaviour

The mail is in english, even though the preferred language is set to german (de_DE) in the config.php with the default_language entry.

'default_language' => 'de_DE'

This happens, because when a user gets created, it still has no value for the langkey in the oc_preferences table. However, the MailNotifications.php (line 168) looks for this. If it doesn't find anything, it will fallback to the english language.

Here is the query to check it:

SELECT appid, configkey, configvalue, userid FROM oc_preferences WHERE configkey = 'lang';

So when creating a user it should either set the value in the oc_preferences table or fallback to the default_language set in the config.php.
