    Warning on running aptitude upgrade

    Hi folks,


    Debian Etch 8.04 amd64
    Base server installation, headless


    Immediately after installation completed ran "aptitude update" followed by "aptitude upgrade". Following warnings were found on the latter;
    Code:
    perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
    perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
            LANGUAGE = (unset),
            LC_ALL = (unset),
            LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
        are supported and installed on your system.
    perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
    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

    Please advise which file shall I check and how to fix the problem. TIA

    Do you have the locales package installed? If not, get it and then try:
    Code:
    #dpkg-reconfigure locales

    Hi,


    Thanks for your advice.

    Install "locales" and run "dpkg-reconfigure locales"

    & sudo aptitude upgrade
    the warning gone.
