    setlocale(LC_MESSAGES, $locale);

and i got error:

Notice: Use of undefined constant LC_MESSAGES - assumed 'LC_MESSAGES'
Deprecated: setlocale(): Passing locale category name as string is deprecated. Use the LC_* -constants instead in
Warning: setlocale(): Invalid locale category name LC_MESSAGES, must be one of LC_ALL, LC_COLLATE, LC_CTYPE, LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, or LC_TIME in

The PHP Manual entry for setlocale

LC_MESSAGES for system responses (available if PHP was compiled with libintl)

We can assume therefore that your webserver has a version of PHP compiled with libintl, but that your WAMP server does not. My understanding is that LC_MESSAGES doesn't work very well on Windows.

Try instead using:

putenv("LC_ALL=$locale");
setlocale(LC_ALL=$locale);

If you're using php-gettext then make sure you've installed your locales to the appropriate folders.
