Maya tools are using comma on floating point numbers in their script

[Anonymous]

Currently using Maya 2014 - Linux64 along Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit..

BUG:
When I try to use a tool like for examle the extrude tool from edit mesh section to extrude a face from an object, maya raises a syntax error on script editor:

polyExtrudeFacet -constructionHistory 1 -keepFacesTogether 1 -pvx 2,611262724 -pvy 3,533006417 -pvz 1,212884358 -divisions 1 -twist 0 -taper 1 -off 0 -thickness 0 -smoothingAngle 30 pCube1.f[4];
// Error: //
// Error: Line 0.68: Syntax error //

With a little research I found that the error is related to the formatation of the floating point numbers (http://www.creativecrash.com/forums/modeling/topics/extrude-doesn-39-t-work), in other words MEL script use dots instead of commas on floating point numbers.. Is there any way to fix this bug permantly instead of fixing it manually, like for example copy the code, replacing the commas with dots and run it? This way is really slow and clunky..

This isnt really a bug, using "." to seperate digits its just the standard way of writing decimal numbers in English.

I have same error :P, I don't know If I have to reinstall.

I am not an English User, Should I set variables?

I did this sudo sh -c "echo 'setenv LC_ALL en_US.UTF-8' >> /usr/autodesk/maya2014-x64/bin/maya2014"

I errased maya folder from Home, and, well problem still persist

I Found the mistake, is all about the Language Settings.

If you're using Xubuntu, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, just go to system preferences, and check that your language settings is using for example:

One Hundred, and decimals, the decimals MUST me separated as with "."

I am a Mexican user, so the Spanish setting for my language is wrong, we separate decimals with dots, not with commas, as Spain and European Users do.
So, my solution was to switch to Spanish of United States, that is correct One.

Now, you have to check if the Language Settings of your OS, separates decimals as with periods, dots, you know what I mean, because, Maya has not translation to Another Language that is not English, Japanese or Chinese, then the Rest of the World users have to change Language settings to make Maya to not have mistakes when extrudes, and creates uv's, because it uses floats on Mel scripts.

So, good luck, change your language settings and have fun.
