Hello,
We are trying to install an application which requires a UK (en-GB) locale, however have not had much success in trying the default images, then converting them to UK regional settings (via group policy, copy settings..." function in Region and Languages or via the registry).
Given we can't get the out-of-the-box images working, we have turned to creating the basic VM locally stating with UK settings, then uploading the image.
We assume that once sysprep has been run and the image provisioned within Azure, the locale will be configured to US. Based on this, we are trying to use unattended.xml to set everything to UK settings, so the machine never is configured to US at any stage. On doing so, the provisioning eventually fails. Reading around the subject, articles state to delete unattended.xml and other articles state that the unatteneded.xml can conflict.
The question is: Can certain settings be placed in the unattended.xml and if so, can the regional settings be placed here (does anyone have a successful example file used in Azure)?
If the unattended.xml can not be used to achieve this, can anyone suggest (ideally with detailed steps) how we can achieve a VM with UK based regional settings (not just a US one which we then try to update via registry or the "copy settings..." function in Region and Languages)?
With thanks,
Richard
