RSSWSS v3 Localization and Custom Resource Files (RESX) (Tip!)
Aug 22
Disclaimer: This is current as of Beta 2 (non TR).
For those that have been brave enough to venture into WSS v3 localization using custom RESX files, you may be having a little trouble accessing them.
If so try looking in this directory: (The port (80) I guess may change in some cases):
localdrive\Inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\App_GlobalResources
Turns out the resource files are copied here during the creation (setup) of your web application.
Hope it helps,

The issue with this is that if I create my own page layouts either I have to modify this file or create a few resx file in the App_GlobalResources that has the localization text.
I wish there was a way that the localization data was not in the file system but in the database just like the layout pages…
Or am I missing something?

Update: I’m pretty sure the file originally are actually copied to the RESOURCE folder in the 12 Hive. SharePoint copies it to the INETPUB.

I installed the new template “bug database” but get an error (Key ResolveBugPageTitle not found).
I’m new to these resource files. The placeholder says: . In 12hive I found resx files named “tsa…” but I searched through them all and didn’t find that kex. I looked for resx files in Inetpub – there are some but none called anything like “tsa”.
