Providers and their crappy openz images
Hi,
Please providers outside there: Test your OpenVZ images before you offer them, Debian 7 is released since month's and some providers have still for example that crappy sources.list inside. Also this:
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
THANKS FOR READING THIS!

Wouldn't you reset the default locale yourself anyway?
@Nekki didnt worked...... thats what pissing me off. I need extra add a ticket for this every time when i reinstall a vps.
This is what I do, and it works:
locale-gen en_US.UTF-8; dpkg-reconfigure locales
Known issue.

It's linux. Fix it. Customize it. Make it yours. That's why you got a linux vps right?
@amhoab /usr/bin/locale: Cannot set en_US to default locale: No such file or directory
Maybe you need to install 'locales'?
This is on Debian 7:
root@s1:~# locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 Generating locales (this might take a while)... Generation complete.
Dosent works, failed to set.... seems like a template issue.
did you tried
dpkg-reconfigure locales
Try "apt-get install debconf && dpkg-reconfigure locales"
Correct solution is in that article I linked, just pick the right distro choice. I get that warning on most templates and I always use that article to reference if I forget.
So after we solved the issue, we might want to give some thoughts to their/there/they're. ;-)
@skagerrak who told you that it was fixed? All solutions don't work still the same issue.
We're not going to solve this until we find those responsible for building images without locales just to save 20MB. Burn down there house and make sure their held responsible for they're actions!
Sure, i just asked here, seems like i need to wait for it... dam it.
Seems like its fixed, ty.
You've tried everything here: http://openvz.org/Locales_inside_VE ?
It does take time to edit an OpenVZ image so this is not an outrageous request.
Just make script to install locale and edit the sources. Not that hard...
