locale errors

Post by bradleywill.. » Mon, 16 Aug 1999 04:00:00



I've been searching for information about locale but can't pin down a
manpage or any clear information about it. I'm hoping that someone has
seen this before...I'm including as much information as I can think of
to collect...

% uname -a
AIX namegoeshere 3 4 003008024D00
%
% locale
LANG=En_US
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=
%

This is the error message that I am trying to decipher; what does it
mean?
% dtfile.binary
Xt Warning: locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged

I interpret it as saying that the program dtfile.binary was compiled
with a locale definition other than En_US so it is *. Am I close?

Thanks in advance

Close -

it is trying to open up a nls database file in your NLSPATH
for dt stuff this should be
 /usr/dt/lib/nls/%L/msg/%N.cat ( or /usr/dt/lib/nls/C/msg/dtfile.cat )
which is where my system finds it ( it's also under en_US)

gencat / dspmsg (dumpcat for other unix's) are commands that are used to
generate the nls message files.

my guess is your NLSPATH variable is screwed up or someone did some
house cleaning in the dt directory.

En_US indicates that you are set for ASCII Codepage, where en_US is an iso
codepage. Try to install via smit the localisation Files and you will be ok.
 
 
 

1. Locale errors - solution

For those who may have been upgrading using the 'make world' method, or
have had StarOffice 3.1 installed on their machine, may find that they get
one or more of these errors:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LANG = "us"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

I had StarOffice on my system and then removed it. By removing it, I mean
deleting the directory tree from /usr/local/StarOffice. There is also a
directory called StarOffice and some files .sd.* in the users home
directory. These, should be taken away for a clean StarOffice removal. The
install puts the line:

source .sd.csh

in your .cshrc. You should either replace the .cshrc with the .cshrc.bak
that the setup created, or edit these lines out.
