Hi Ralph,

Thank you so much for helping me on this issue.

For the CardDAV/CalDAV, I don't know if you have seen my other email  
but it was due to a mistake when I deleted the /usr/share/php/Sabre  
folder.
After re-creating it, all is fine now.

And for the language issue, here is the result of the PHP Shell instruction :

The fr_FR that I am trying to use is displayed as OK, but the login  
screen and all the web site after is still displaying default english  
strings.
I am not on openSUSE but on Debian Buster (v10) and it is very  
frustating as I can't see what can be the issue which is preventing  
the site to display correct translation, as I have installed other  
sites (Wordpress/Roundcube) which are working well with the  
translation system.

I hope this will give you more hints.

Let me know if you need more things to check on my server.

All the best,
Laurent
