 |
|
Hi all,
Out of nowhere, probably after glibc was updated, I am having trouble with, what I think, are my locale settings, though I did not change them. I see the following error message when I run the statistics package R:
| Code: |
During startup - Warning messages:
1: Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C"
2: Setting LC_TIME failed, using "C"
3: Setting LC_MESSAGES failed, using "C"
4: Setting LC_MONETARY failed, using "C"
5: Setting LC_PAPER failed, using "C"
6: Setting LC_MEASUREMENT failed, using "C"
|
My /etc/locale.gen file is as follows:
| Code: |
en_US ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
|
Any help would be appreciated.
Best,
Alex

evoweiss ...
The issue seems to be that you only have 'en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8' in /etc/locale.gen but are setting 'en_GB.UTF-8' ... add 'en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8' to /etc/locale.gen and run 'locale-gen'.

Thanks, that did the trick. I don't know what happened to the locale.gen file. Like I said, it used to work fine.
