Hi,
I found this in Oracle support, It is interesting so thought to share with you. If you have oracle support account then you can access this directly from oracle support (Doc ID 1267934.1)
Goal
How to modify the list of available
languages and locales in the Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) login screen,
for versions 10g (10.1.3.x.x) and 11g (currently 11.1.1.3.0).
Solution
In OBIEE 10g it is possible to change
the list of available languages and locales in the log in screen. This is done
by editing instanceconfig.xml file under the
directory
<OracleBIData>/web/config
and adding/removing the
languages from the corresponding tags.
For example, to display only
Germand and English languages, you can set it as follow:
<AllowedLanguages>de,en</AllowedLanguages>
<AllowedLocales>de-at,de-ch,de-de,en-us</AllowedLocales>
Then,
you need to restart Presentation
Server.
**************************************************************
In
OBIEE 11g the settings have changed. In the instanceconfig file now you need to
modify within the <Localization> tag.
The instanceconfig.xml file
is located
under
<BI_HOME>/instances/instance3/config/OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent/coreapplication_obips1
for
example
C:\OBIEE_11g\instances\instance3\config\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1
This
is how you need to modify the instanceconfig.xml file:
<Localization>
<AllowedLanguages>de,en</AllowedLanguages>
<AllowedLocales>de-at,de-ch,de-de,en-us</AllowedLocales>
</Authentication>
<Localization>
<AllowedLanguages>de,en</AllowedLanguages>
<AllowedLocales>de-at,de-ch,de-de,en-us</AllowedLocales>
</Localization>
</ServerInstance>
</WebConfig>
</Localization>
Thanks,
