GitHub user dosubot[bot] added a comment to the discussion: superset 5.0.0 translation is not available
<!-- Answer --> This is a known issue in Superset 5.0.0: even with `BUILD_TRANSLATIONS=true`, the translation build scripts have a bug that prevents the French translation files from being generated and included in the image. Specifically, the script that generates frontend translations uses an invalid `find` command, so it finds zero `.po` files and produces no `.json` or `.mo` files. The backend compilation step also suppresses errors, so failures are silent and the directory ends up empty—even if your config is correct and the source files exist. This is a regression in the Docker build process, not a misconfiguration on your part. [Reference](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/Dockerfile#L27-L209) **Workaround:** Until this is fixed upstream, you can manually generate the translation files on your machine and copy them into your image: 1. On your host, in the Superset repo, run: ```bash pybabel compile -d superset/translations cd superset-frontend npm install npm run build-translation ``` 2. Copy the resulting `messages.mo` and `messages.json` files for French into your Docker build context. 3. In your Dockerfile, copy them into `/app/superset/translations/fr/LC_MESSAGES/` after the build steps. This will ensure the files are present and translations work as expected. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
