It’s not you, it’s a bug. We recently re-worked the i19n plugin and enhanced some of those methods. The sample apps haven’t been updated yet. There is already a ticket in for it:
https://ortussolutions.atlassian.net/browse/COLDBOX-134
For now, you can just comment out the showLanguage() and showCountry() calls in the sample view.
Thanks!
