change asp.net mvc2 site culture (Model Validation Fails with Non-US Dates)

I have an asp.net mvc2 app that issue Validation errors on Europe style dates (dd/mm/yyyy)

I've found that the CurrentUICulture is en-us. how can I change it permanently and to all the app to be like in Europe (en-GB ?)

Do I need to change something on the Database as well (SQL server 2008, default installation).

(this issue is linked to ASP.NET MVC2 Model Validation Fails with Non-US Date Format question)

But I don't want to treat dates all over the app, rather having the app work entirely in the right culture.

Solution

  • Well, it looks like changing the server culture (in regional settings) solve it for me..But I still wonder if it is possible to solve this without changing the server's culture.
