Setting the locale

We are looking at being able to call our installer silently from another installer (not necessarily InstallAnywhere). I am wondering if there is a way for the parent installer to set the locale of our silent installer to match what the user selected in the parent installer.

An InstallAnywhere installer accepts the -l (lowercase L) switch followed by the Java locale abbreviation to specify the locale: -l en for English, -l fr for French, -l es for Spanish, and so on; so if your parent installer can represent its selected locale in this form...

we have a problem when we try to invoke our installer using -l argument with value en. It throws error "The desired locale is not supported by this installer." It does bring up installer in english. still it shows that message.
however with other non english locales it does work.
