First, we use Debian (not Ubuntu).

How do you change your default language ?

If you talk about the web interface you can set it there.

Else try "dpkg-reconfigure locales", and set the locale in '/etc/default/locale'.

Hello,

The proxmox locale is fine. My problem is with the VE template.

Unfortunately, I seem to have the same problem, irrespective of the distribution I have in container (debian or ubuntu). The solution that I could find is to firstly generate files for locales in need, for instance:

locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 ru_RU.UTF-8

and then to set locale variables with:

update-locale LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8

The reboot of the container is needed for settings to take place.
