It looks like a linux system. Or which OS do you use?

Do you tried to start PG as root (because of the #)? Are you sure root
is allowed to start it? Is root superuser?

Try to start it as user postgres.

all installed locales will listen by:
$ locale -a

I have no french locale installed on my debian system, but you will get
a list like this:

C
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
de_DE.iso885915
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

When I run locale, that list will diplayed:

$ locale

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
LANGUAGE=de_DE:de:en_GB:en

It is the same, as your list. Only fr_FR (France) instead de_DE
(Germany).

So I am sure, the problem is, that you tried to start postgresql as root
and not as superuser. The standard superuser is postgres.

Try this:
tux2:~# su postgres
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.1 start
