Re: Problem with locale

I don't understand the 'C' in all of your lines.

Mine is healthy and looks like this:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Re: Problem with locale

I think you will need to offer some more information prior to anyone being able to help you.

What were the "strange things" which occured?  Have you changed anything?

What did you do to try to fix it and with what results?

Re: Problem with locale

Read the wiki and set your locale properly.
Post the output of 'locale -a'.
