problem with locale

2007-03-04 Thread Guill. Moreno-Socias

  Hello.
  I would like to know how to reset everything around the locale in the
system.
  Background:  I had FreeBSD 5.4, everything was working fine.  Then I
upgraded to FreeBSD 6.2 and the locale became corrupt.  I have since
downgraded to FreeBSD 5.5 (because of a horrible problem of em0: watchdog
timeout -- resetting), and the locale is still corrupt.
  Examples:  any man command gives

ctype locale: Invalid argument

and perl -e '' gives

perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
   LC_ALL = (unset),
   LC_CTYPE = fr_FR.ISO8859-1,
   LANG = (unset)
   are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale (C).

(please note that this is NOT a perl question;  the preceding example is
only to show the problem).

  Thanks in adavnce for any help.

cause, as described in the Handbook, locale names are following the
LanguageCode_CountryCode.Encoding scheme.

Problem with locale settings

2005-08-23 Thread Gregory Nou

Hi list,

I'm trying to understand a problem of locale, but I definitely can't 
solve it on my own.

I use zsh. I've set LC_ALL and LANG to fr_FR.

19:39 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc% export | grep fr_FR
LANG=fr_FR
LC_ALL=fr_FR

It is set in /etc/zshenv.

However, when I make install some program, I get this :
(null): Failed to set default locale
or
19:53 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~% openoffice.org
I18N: Operating system doesn't support locale 
or
(gnochm:56487): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
   Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(in this case, it makes the program abort)

I can't see what I'm missing/doing wrong.

Thanks for your help !
