[Freeswitch-users] german prompts - first release - how to get it to work

[Peter P GMX]

I tried to install this, but I failed so far
    [ERR] switch_ivr_play_say.c:113 Can't find language de.
    [WARNING] switch_ivr_play_say.c:339 Macro [voicemail_hello]: '' did
not match any patterns


Step 1) I tried the follwowing (which worked)
(exchanged the sound files)
  I copied all geman language files to
  /usr/local/freeswitch/sounds/en/us/callie
and switched voice to "en"
I could hear all german annoucements without any problems, but of course
the phrase handling was not perfect


Step 2) Then I made the next step (which didn't work)
("de" configuration with english phrase management)
 I and switched voice to "de" and modified the geman language files
/usr/local/freeswitch/conf/lang/de/de.xml to
<include>
  <language name="de" sound-path="$${base_dir}/sounds/de/de/callie"
tts-engine="cepstral" tts-voice="katrin">
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="demo/demo.xml"/>
    <!--voicemail_de_tts is purely implemented with tts, we need a files
based implementation too -->
    <!-- <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="vm/tts.xml"/> -->
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="vm/sounds.xml"/>  <!-- vm/tts.xml
if you want to use tts and have cepstral -->
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="dir/sounds.xml"/>  <!--
dir/tts.xml if you want to use tts and have cepstral -->
  </language>
</include>
and copied vm/sounds.xml and dir/sounds.xml from the en directory
I expected to have the same behaviour and english phrasse handling with
german wavs as before. But this didn't work
Again
    [ERR] switch_ivr_play_say.c:113 Can't find language de.
    [WARNING] switch_ivr_play_say.c:339 Macro [voicemail_hello]: '' did
not match any patterns


Step 3) Then I made the next step (which didn't work)
(copy of en configuration with english phrase management and small
changes to de)
  I copied all language config files from
  /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/lang/en to /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/lang/de
and modified the de.xml as above
  <language name="de" sound-path="$${base_dir}/sounds/de/de/callie"
tts-engine="cepstral" tts-voice="katrin">
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="demo/demo.xml"/>
    <!--voicemail_de_tts is purely implemented with tts, we need a files
based implementation too -->
    <!-- <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="vm/tts.xml"/> -->
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="vm/sounds.xml"/>  <!-- vm/tts.xml
if you want to use tts and have cepstral -->
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="dir/sounds.xml"/>  <!--
dir/tts.xml if you want to use tts and have cepstral -->
  </language>
</include>
(just changed en/us to /de/de)
Again
    [ERR] switch_ivr_play_say.c:113 Can't find language de.
    [WARNING] switch_ivr_play_say.c:339 Macro [voicemail_hello]: '' did
not match any patterns

It seems that my freeswith doesn't accept the german language.

What can I do to fix this problem (GIT is from last week)

Best regards
