We need to know what revision of OFBiz you are using and what steps you
are taking. In other words, we don't have enough information to answer
your question.
In the meantime, here is some information that may be helpful:
1. There was work done recently to improve the locale support in OFBiz.
Try checking out the latest revision.
2. There are several factors that affect the locale - the default
locale, the available locales, and the user's preferences.
3. A server default locale can be specified in start.properties. If the
user doesn't select a locale, the default locale will be used.
4. The list of available locales presented to the user can be configured
in general.properties. This is used to limit the size of the list of
available locales displayed on the Change Locale screen.
5. OFBiz will always display date & time fields as yyyy-mm-dd
hh:mm:ss.SSS regardless of the locale the user selected. This was a
design decision intended to keep date/time entry consistent across locales.
