Wrong SSH Language
Hi,
i didn't use rdm for ssh in the last months. Today i connected to a server and noticed that the server locale was set to my native language. This would be wrong so I tried to reconfigure the server for 30 minutes - it was impossible.
Then i switched to putty where the server did have the correct language.
Then i did some further testing with RDM:
Reinstalling
Reset Language
Checking the RDM config
Strange behaviour:
Everything in RDM is English but after clicking on the connection, for the certificate password popup RDM switches to German (even the searchbars). After entering the password RDM switches back to English.
RDM is set to English, Windows is set to German and the server has Debian 12 installed.
All the best

Hello,
Could you please attempt to replicate the issue using a portable version of Remote Desktop Manager (RDM)? Here's how you can do this:
- Download the .zip file from the following link: https://remotedesktopmanager.com/home/thankyou/rdmbin.
- Create a new folder on your Desktop.
- Extract the contents of the .zip file into the new folder.
- After extracting, open the folder and run "remotedesktopmanager.exe."
- Connect to your data source.
This approach will assist us in determining if the issue is specific to your local installation of RDM.

Is this problem solved? I have the same issue.. When starting an SSH session the server "seems" to be in my local language instead of just keeping to English !!
Hello,
I have requested an update from the developer and will keep you informed about their response.

Oh man, as @notavailable said, it took me over an hour to realize that this issue comes from RDM.
Is a workaround possible until the fix is published?
Best regards,

Found a workaround in another thread: https://forum.devolutions.net/topics/40085/ssh-default-locale-linux-server-is-changed-to-enus#180345
Disable set environment in the SSH entry > Properties > General > Advanced > Skip environment variable setup
