bash-fu: Setting Locale on Ubuntu [Hardy]
Wednesday, August 6th, 2008Not a tip that is strictly bash related, but useful nonetheless. For those struggling to fix error messages on their Ubuntu whining about of an inability to set locale .
Error message:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.<br/>
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:<br/>
...<br/>
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").<br/>
Fix:
sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
with en_US replaced with your locale.
