gettext() troubles

Hello List,

 

I am facing some troubles with gettext.

phpinfo() says that both of gettext and iconv extensions are installed
properly, I can call gettext() function but it never translates my strings
returning the original key every time.

 

Here is the code:

 

<?php

 

putenv("LANG=ru_RU");

setlocale (LC_ALL,"ru");

 

$domain = 'messages';

 

echo bindtextdomain ($domain, 'D:\intranet\wwwroot\lng');

 

echo textdomain ($domain);

 

echo bind_textdomain_codeset($domain, 'UTF-8');

 

echo gettext("string");

 

?>

 

Below is the output:

 

D:\intranet\wwwroot\lng
messages
UTF-8
string

 

All of the language files are in the following location:
D:\intranet\wwwroot\lng\ru\LC_MESSAGES\

 

D:\intranet\wwwroot\lng\ru\LC_MESSAGES\messages.po

D:\intranet\wwwroot\lng\ru\LC_MESSAGES\messages.mo

 

The files were created with poEdit utility and look fine.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Have a great day,
