I moved a site to a new server, and after that the language for the day of the week has changed.
This is the date/time in the "welcome to site".
Date/time for stories etc are shown in the prefered language (norwegian) as before.
It also appears that the switches for php(date) (I%,s& etc) does not return what the manual on php.net states..
Does anyone have an answear to this? My host sure did not :p

So the conf_locale are set correctly.
The question are why the {datetime} variable does not show in the choosen language.
EDIT:
I just found when testing on some testinstallations that it for me looks like a problem with GL 1.4.0. Changing locale settings on this version does not have any effect, but with older versions all back to 1.3.8 the locale settings are working...

I doubt that. Locale handling hasn't changed in a while.
Which language are we talking about? It's possible that the locale is not installed on the server. Also, the syntax is different for Windows and Unix/Linux servers.

Thanks for your replies Dirk!
This is from my config.php
$_CONF['language'] = 'norsk';
$_CONF['locale'] = 'no-NO';
$_CONF['date'] = '%a, %d %B %Y kl %H:%M ';
$_CONF['daytime'] = '%d/%m %H:%M%p';
$_CONF['shortdate'] = '%x';
$_CONF['dateonly'] = '%d-%b';
$_CONF['timeonly'] = '%H:%M';
$_CONF['week_start'] = 'Mon'; // can be 'Sun' or 'Mon'
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';
The language are norwegian (norsk)
Can it be the server?
Language for day and month in articles, user last login, user regdate, calendar, osv are shown in norwegian now. The only shown in english are the site time&date-{datetime}

OMFG 
I should be banned from touching a computer!
Really sorry for the waste of your time Dirk! *lol*
But one question: Now it surely works, but why was datetime the only one affected? All other dates and times was shown in norwegian..

In some places, the week and month names come from the language file, in others, it depends on the locale setting. It's actually a bit messy, but only shows through when the language and locale don't match - as in your case ...
