Error locale after upgrading

[johnjdoe]

Hi, after upgrading like described in the wiki, I receive the following message doing a pveversion:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "de_BE.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
pve-manager/1.5/4822

Is this a serious problem and/or could you please tell me how to correct it?

Thank you in advance!

Try running the following:

dpkg-reconfigure locales

and select the missing locales. That should fix it.

proxmox:~# dpkg-reconfigure locales

It seems that there is an other problem. Do you have perhaps an advice what to do know?

Thank you in advance!

try

export LANG=C

before executing above commands

I don't think it matters - you have generated your locales with the dpkg-reconfigure command - so next time you run a system tool it will take effect. Have you tried running pveversion again afterwards?

Perfect Dietmar, this worked fine, thanks!
