Subject: sympa: UTF-8 and Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale Package: sympa Version: 5.3.4-6.1 Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line *** Dear Debian folks, this report might be related to [1] and [2]. I installed sympa on a machine with $ locale -a C en_US.utf8 POSIX and while accessing WWSympa the following messages were logged in syslog. Jan 19 15:30:14 x sympa[6648]: Server started for all, pid 6651 Jan 19 15:30:14 x sympa[6651]: Sympa 5.3.4 started Jan 19 15:30:14 x sympa[6651]: Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale(de_DE) ; you either have a problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available locales in your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file After doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales as proposed in [1], I have now $ locale -a C de_DE de_DE.iso88591 de_DE.utf8 deutsch en_AU.utf8 en_US en_US.iso88591 german POSIX but still get Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale(en_US) ; you either have a problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available locales in your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Language::SetLang(), missing locale parameter Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale(en_US) ; you either have a problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available locales in your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: [robot listhost.x.bar] [client 85.178.170.224] main::do_home() do_home Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale(en_US) ; you either have a problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available locales in your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Language::SetLang(), missing locale parameter Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale(en_US) ; you either have a problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available locales in your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Language::SetLang(), missing locale parameter Jan 19 19:13:51 x wwsympa[4663]: Language::SetLang() Failed to setlocale(en_US) ; you either have a problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available locales in your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file I do not know why now it changed back from de_DE to en_US. $ sudo grep lang sympa.conf ## Default lang (cs | de | el | en_US | fr | hu | it | ja_JP | nl | oc | pt_BR | tr) lang de ## Supported languages for the user interface supported_lang de,en_US Ok, now I restarted sympa again, but did I did not restart the Apache HTTP Server before. Now it works, so I do not know where this problem got solved. # Request # Anyway, as far as I know, in Lenny UTF-8 is supposed to be the standard encoding, so it is not convenient to install more locales. I do not know where the problem is and if it was fixed in 5.4.4 or 6.0a. Is there a solution, to make perl(?) play nicely with UTF-8. And if not, could there be a warning added during package installation?
