My resources are defined as the following:

<cultures>

<clear />

<add culture="en-US" uiCulture="en" key="english-en-us" />

<add culture="pt-BR" uiCulture="pt" key="portuguese-pt-br" />

<add culture="es-ES" uiCulture="es" key="spanish-es-es" />

</cultures>

<backendCultures>

<clear />

<add culture="en-US" uiCulture="en" key="english-en-us" />

</backendCultures>

I've create a ApplicationModule using SitefinityModule template that comes with the installation. It does appear on /Sitefinity/Administration/Settings/Advanced > System > ApplicationModules.

I've configured it to install "OnApplicationStart", but I always get that error in this line:

sf.DocumentLibrary().CreateNew().Do(lib =>

lib.Title = ModuleName;     // ERROR

lib.UrlName = ModuleName;

);

lib language is setted as "pt-BR", but my backend is not in portuguese, it is only in english.

Unsupported language "pt-BR". If you want to support this language, please configure your application accordingly.

My SO is Windows 7 pt-BR.

How exactly does it work? What should I do to build a module that can work in any language?

---
Forcing to en-US

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture =

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo("en-US");

Showed the same error, but for en-US.

Checking for

moduleNode.AvailableLanguages

Shows that it is empty.

How do I configure these languages?

--------------

This only happens when I have more than one front-end language.

Hello Bruno Michels,

This has been logged as a bug. It is related to a problem that in multilingual mode Sitefinity doesn't set correctly the current UI culture during the installation of Modules.
As a workaround i propose to change the beginning of your module install method like this:

public override void Install(SiteInitializer initializer)

base.Install(initializer);

if (Config.Get<ResourcesConfig>().Multilingual)

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture        =     CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo    (Config.Get<ResourcesConfig>().DefaultBackendCulture.UICulture);

Anyway this bug will be fixed for SP1 that will be releasing this week.

All the best,
