Which languages are supported by MySQL?

mysqld can give error messages in the following languages: Czech, Dutch, English (default), French, German, Norwegian, Norwegian-ny, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish.

To start mysqld with a language use one of the --language=lang or -L lang switches:

mysqld --language=swedish or mysqld --language=/usr/local/share/swedish

Note that all the language names are in lowercase.

The language files are located (by default) in `mysql_base_dir/share/LANGUAGE/'.

If you want to update the error message file, you should edit the errmsg.txt file and execute comp_err errmsg.txt errmsg.sys to generate the errmsg.sys file.
