SYMPTOMS
When multiple languages are defined in Systems Management Server Installer, all custom text labels for script items may be blank even though they were defined within the script. This may happen if a script item with custom text is created in one language, and then another language is selected. The text that was defined for the script item may now be blank in the newly selected language.



CAUSE
If you have not clicked to select the Copy Default check box on the Languages tab in Installation Properties, SMS Installer does not populate the default, custom text values to the other languages selected, and these custom text values have to be entered in manually for all other languages.

If you have clicked to select the Copy Default check box, all of the script item text, from the language in which they were created, are used in the script items for the other languages.



MORE INFORMATION
To manually enter custom text values in the other languages, in the script editor, click the desired language in the Language box, open the script item, and then type in the text values. Do this for all script items that contain custom text.
