LC_ALL = (unset) or when you try to install anything with apt-get and get error

Hello every one ,

Today i got some strange 1 in the life time error – and i want to share it and resolve it .

My server is an VPS linux server (Ubuntu 12.04)  – Parallels Virtuoozzoo .

Every time I try to install anything with apt-get,restart service and use commands – I get the following error.

For example:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LANGUAGE = (unset),
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LC_PAPER = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_ADDRESS = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_MONETARY = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_NUMERIC = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_TELEPHONE = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_IDENTIFICATION = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_MEASUREMENT = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_TIME = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LC_NAME = "he_IL.UTF-8",
	LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

The picture on one more server of my :


One more example :

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LANGUAGE = "en_GB:en",
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LANG = "en_GB"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

 

Solution to that problem:

I runt couple of commands :

root@www:# dpkg-reconfigure locales

and

root@www:# sudo localwe-gen en_US.UTF-8

 

You are done 🙂 – no need to reboot the system .

For Debian systems it may work , but i know only this :

export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_TYPE=en_US.UTF-8

 

 

P.S

You may also use :

LC_ALL="en_GB.utf8"
sudo apt-get install --reinstall language-pack-en

Good Luck .
