Hi @ebebpl would it be possible to set a global locale?
As you can see in [1] we try to use the $LC_ALL
and $LANG
environment variables of the system but if we don't find them set we default to C.UTF-8
. Could you try to set these variables? I suspect you could append in /etc/environment
:
export LC_ALL="en_GB.UTF-8"
export LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"
... and then reboot
Thanks @ktsakalozos it worked after adding the below variables to /etc/environment and logoff/logon as root. Reboot was not needed.
$ cat /etc/environment
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_ALL=en_US.utf8
I also saw in this blog https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/locale#Generating_locales so I think LC_ALL is usually blank in Centos 7 so it impacts the kubelite shell script. LCALL: troubleshooting The locale set for this variable will always override LANG and all the other LC variables, whether they are set or not. If LC_ALL is set to C, it will also override LANGUAGE. LCALL is the only LC variable which cannot be set in locale.conf files: it is meant to be used only for testing or troubleshooting purposes, for example in /etc/profile.
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.
