Errors installing locale

Hi everyone!

I’m trying to get locale installed but keep bumping into this error. Does anyone have any insight into how to fix it?

Thanks so much!

Starting locale.
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory
character map file UTF-8' not found: No such file or directory cannot read character map directory/usr/share/i18n/charmaps’: No such file or directory

Do you have SSH access? If so, this can be easily fixed by doing this in an SSH session:

mkdir -p /usr/share
ln -s /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/usr/share/i18n /usr/share/i18n

Hmm I do have SSH access

After executing "ln -s /mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/usr/share/i18n /usr/share/i18n’ it said that the file already existed so I did “rm /usr/share/i18n” and reexecuted that successfully.

Now, on restart, it says:

./service.sh restart

/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/DroboApps/locale/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory
cannot create temporary file: No such file or directory

Thanks again for the help!

You probably need to generate the locale you are using. When you type “echo $LC_CTYPE”, what does it show you?
