<p>When I try to output the day name (l or D) or month name (F or M) i get a number instead of the day/month-name.</p>

<pre><code>{{ entry.end|date("j. F Y") }}
</code></pre>

<p>turns into:</p>

<pre><code>1. 9 2015
</code></pre>

<p>when output.</p>

<p>Expected output would be <code>1. oktober 2015</code> (site language is Norwegian (nb)) or even <code>1. October 2015</code> (if internationalization did not work).</p>

I'd try and reinstall the craft/app/ folder, looks like there's some files missing / corrupted.

I'm actually seeing the exact same behavior for all 3 Norwegian locales (no, nn and nb). Other locales – such as Swedish – work as expected, though. Smells like a bug? Ran my test on a fresh d/l.

When I try to output the day name (l or D) or month name (F or M) i get a number instead of the day/month-name.
{{ entry.end|date("j. F Y") }}

turns into:
1. 9 2015

when output.
Expected output would be 1. oktober 2015 (site language is Norwegian (nb)) or even 1. October 2015 (if internationalization did not work).
