Bug#292366: loop on incorrect charset
Hello, On 27/Jan/2005, Frans Pop wrote: So, where does the gb_GB setting come from? I do apologize. The typo is mine. I've got the message loop like that: - Display the Debian Welcome message - msg: Incorrect charset ('en_GB')... (as I remember! I only could get the correct message again reinstalling) - menu with different options where the first one is Display Welcome message and inmediately it changes to the welcomes message again Sorry again for this misunderstanding. If you need it, I might have time next week to reinstall the server and get you the proper error message. -- Sergio You will get what you deserve. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#292366: loop on incorrect charset
On Thursday 27 January 2005 10:45, you wrote: Attached. I'm only sending you the log for the netinstall although the error was identical in both cases. Thanks for the info. The strange thing is that the locale selection actually looks OK. From syslog: countrychooser: info: Set debian-installer/locale = 'en_GB' countrychooser: info: Set debian-installer/language = 'en_GB:en_US:en_GB:en' From messages: locale 'en_GB' not available Generating locales... en_GB.ISO-8859-1... done Generation complete. So, where does the gb_GB setting come from? Can you post the contents of /etc/environment after the reboot. If there's no gb_GB in there, could you grep /etc for that string? Could you also check the logs in /var/log on the installed system for gb_GB and paste relevant parts. We still need to figure out where it comes from of course. ATM I have no idea. /me wonders if maybe it could be a typo in locale-config. Cheers, FJP
Bug#292366: loop on incorrect charset
Package: debian-installer Severity: grave I have installed a couple of sparc64 machines (One netra and one V100) and in both of them I had a problem at the end of the installation. On the first reboot, it enters on the menu where you will set up the root password and some other configs. But I was unable to do anything here as the server entered on a loop with the error Incorrect charset gb_GB. This servers have not monitor and you have to use a terminal. Normally VT100 at 9600bps I had to reboot on single mode and change /etc/inittab in order to boot the computer normally and finish manually the installation. -- Sergio Increased knowledge will help you now.

To be able to identify the problem and get to a solution, we will need the following information from you: - the installation method you used; - the exact version of the installer you used; (the _full_ url of the image you downloaded for the install and the date of the download is usualy best) - the (gzipped) syslog for the installation, which can be found in /var/log/debian-installer on the installed system Cheers, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
