gettext no translations showed

I'm trying to install gettext on debian, it works perfectly on Wamp on my local computer, but not on the server. I did this for the install:

apt-get install -V gettext

I launch this:

# apt-cache search --names-only gettext

my phpinfo():

GetText Support     enabled

My php code:

    putenv("LANG=nl_NL"); 
setlocale(LC_ALL, "nl_NL"); 
bindtextdomain("greetings", "./locale/");  
textdomain("greetings"); 


echo _("Hello World");

greetings.po:

msgid "Hello World"
msgstr "Hallo Wereld"

greetings.mo in:

locale/nl_NL/LC_MESSAGES/

Other informations:

PHP Version 5.3.3-7+squeeze3

I followed a lot of tutorials, but none of them works, the last one was http://www.aota.net/forums/showthread.php?threadid=10615

Normally it should output "Hallo Wereld", but it is still "Hello World". I restarted the server and the translation has been made since a while so it's not a cache problem.

Thank you very much.

An idea: Try using the full path in bindtexdomain(...) without a trailing slash.

Edit/Try #2: Try running unset LANG and restarting Apache.

Ok I just discovered how to make it.

So on Debian we do:

dpkg-reconfigure locales

then we pick the languages we need.

and the code must have exactly the same writing then the when we type # locale -a (.utf8 if you chose that one)

putenv('LC_ALL=nl_NL.utf8');
setlocale(LC_ALL, "nl_NL.utf8");
bindtextdomain("greetings", "./locale");
textdomain("greetings");


echo gettext("Hello World");

Strange but it works.

Effectivly, a solution is to add ".utf-8" after your language name.

Another solution may be to add "locales" without ".utf8" to your debian.

I noticed this result in an OVH server (hosting company), on which your first configuration is working:
