Title:
fails to start after install if invalid locale is set
Status in “postgresql-common” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
For more information on locale in the cloud-images, see bug 859814.
If you install postgresql-9.1 with invalid LC_ALL, then postgres will
not be running after install (which causes issues with things that
depend on it).
Try:
$ LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 ssh ubuntu@$HOSTNAME
% locale
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
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8
% sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.1
...
After this operation, 11.6 MB of additional disk space will be used.
