Date Picker no longer set to Monday On European Languages

      NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.

      Summary:

      In Confluence 5.8, when using the German Language pack, the date picker:

      • Has Monday as the first day of the week
      • Days are displayed in German

      However, In Confluence 5.9 and above, when using the German Language pack, the date picker:

      • Has Sunday as the first day of the week
      • Days are displayed in English
      Notes:

      Checked in confluence-language-pack-de_DE-5.10.0.rc1-v2r12978-2016-06-06.jar/i18n/aui_de_DE.properties noticed the line
      ajs.datepicker.localisations.first-day was set to 1,

      ajs.datepicker.localisations.first-day=1
      

      which supposed to set the day picker to start on Monday. However, the date picker still shows Sunday as the first day of the week

      Most of European countries start the week with Monday, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Week.

      Workaround:

            When the default language is U.S. English, the date picker sets Monday as the first day of the week. It would be helpful if the date picker starts the week on Sunday when the default language is U.S. English, and here is an issue representing that request:
            https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-56043

            This is very similar to this issue – just for a different language. It would be better for the first day of the week to change based on the default language than require a modification of the .jar files.

            Chiming in; US (English) deployment, upgraded this past weekend from v5.8.4 to v6.6.0, same issue. Formerly we had Sunday as first day of week in the Date Picker widget, now we have Monday as the first day. Given that the Confluence installer does not migrate certain settings (server.xml, web.xml, some third-party libraries), we'd prefer this setting be exposed via the UI instead of needing to hack the language pack JAR files.
