Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-6695:
---------------------------------------------
I'm not able to reproduce the issue (still investigating).
That's possible that it uses the default because you don't have the user
defined. When using the wrapper, it runs with the systemd/runlevel user. Maybe
this user (root) doesn't have correct local define yet.
A possible workaround would be to use RUN_AS_USER in bin/karaf-service.
> Karaf 4.2.8 installed as a service on CentOS 7 uses POSIX as the locale
> instead of UTF-8 like in 4.0.7 or in a non-service install

> I'm testing Karaf 4.2.8 running as a service on CentOS 7 using the
> karaf:wrapper feature. A problem I encountered is that in this new version,
> SSHing into the console and running
> {code:java}
> exec locale{code}
> returns POSIX as the locale for everything:
> {code:java}
> karaf@root()> shell:exec locale
> LANG=
> LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
> LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
> LC_TIME="POSIX"
> LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
> LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
> LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
> LC_PAPER="POSIX"
> LC_NAME="POSIX"
> LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
> LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
> LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
> LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
> LC_ALL={code}
> . This is different from the locale of the user that the karaf server is
> running as (which is en-us.UTF-8 or something like that), and also different
> from the value in karaf 4.0.7 running as a service, the version I upgraded
> from (also UTF-8) and also different from running it using
> /bin/karaf-server.sh (also UTF-8). For me, this causes an issue when doing a
> svn checkout from a karaf feature/bundle, because the svn repository is in
> UTF-8 and Subversion can't deal with the client and server having different
> locales. I imagine there will be other issues as well with other programs I'd
> like to run from Karaf.
> For now, I can work around it by manually changing my locale through an exec,
> but I can't really ask that of my end users. I feel like it's not really
> intended that Karaf runs under a different locale based on whether it's been
> started as a service or not. I also think this might be a regression. At any
> rate, even if it's intended, I'm hoping there is a workaround like a startup
> script I can edit so the locale is always UTF-8.
