GOAL:

Where can default installation PROMSGS, startup.pf, and empty databases files be found?

FIX:


Copies of the PROMSGS, startup.pf and empty database files can be obtained from the installation media or via your current installation.


Copies of these files are placed in your installation directory. Additional copies are placed in the appropriate National Language Support directory you selected as part of the installation process. During the installation, all languages you selected to install will result in the creation of one or more subdirectories in $DLC/prolang.

Listing of supported languages (subdirectories):

Arabic (ARB) Korean (KOR)
Chinese-Simplified (SCH) Lithuanian (LIT)
Chinese-Traditional (TCH) Macedonian (MKD)
Croatian (HRV) Norwegian (NOR)
Czech CZE) Polish (POL)
Danish (DAN) Portuguese (POR)
Dutch (DUT) Portuguese-Brazilian (BRZ)
English-American (AME) Romanian (ROM)
English-International (ENG) Russian (RUS)
Finnish (FIN) Serbian (SRB)
French (FRE) Slovak (SVK)
German (GER) Spanish (SPA)
Greek (GRE) Spanish-Latin American (SPL)
Hebrew (HBR) Spanish-Mexican (MEX)
Hungarian (HUN) Swedish (SWE)
Icelandic (ISL) Thai (TAI)
Italian (ITA) Turkish (TUR)
Japanese (JPN)

NOTE: Subdirectory acronyms should be in lowercase.

Example:

If you installed English-American (AME) the pathname would be:
$DLC/prolang/ame. A listing of this directory would contain the
following files:

ame1252.df empty.d1 empty1.db empty4.b1 empty8.d1
promsgs.ame ame850.df empty.db empty2.b1 empty4.d1
empty8.db startup.pf ame88591.df empty1.b1 empty2.d1
empty4.db engcan.pf empty.b1 empty1.d1 empty2.db
empty8.b1 engus.pf

If you suspect that your PROMSGS file is corrupted and you installed
English-American, you can copy promsgs.ame to $DLC/PROMSGS. The same
holds true for other files within this directory. For detailed
information about these files, please refer to your Progress
Installation and Configuration Guide, "Progress National Language
Support" section.
