Install Error - Locales [fixed] - Airtime Support Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Hey Everyone ..

I have been trying to install airtime and i am getting this weird error -

Im on Ubuntu 11.04. I did what the error told me to do, and now i am stumped.

If someone could help me out, it would be much appreciated.

Even if i have to pay for someones expertise. I just want it working :)

* Making sure /etc/default/locale is set properly

* Fail

A non UTF-8 default locale found in /etc/default/locale. Airtime requires

a UTF-8 locale to run. To fix this please do the following:

Ubuntu:

Put line 'en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8' (or similar) without quotes to '/var/lib/locales/supported.d/local',

replacing any existing lines.

A list of supported locales is available in '/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED'

Then run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales'

Debian:

Run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales' and use the interface to select 'en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8' (or similar).

On the second page select this new locale as the default.

After these changes have been made simply run install again.

Now exiting install...

dpkg: error processing airtime (--configure):

subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Errors were encountered while processing:

airtime

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Ok so you should be fine running those commands the terminal

Mike,
after changing default system locale, to make it effective, you must
logout and then login back to the shell, than make sure that locale is
updated with command locale.

Then follow Martin instructions to reinstall postgres - if that still
does not work, try the hard way:

suggeritamente,

Please try the following:

sudo -u postgres psql -l

If under the name column you only see "postgres, template0, template1 and airtime" then please run the following two commands:

sudo apt-get purge postgresql

sudo apt-get install postgresql

Otherwise, post the names you see in the column.

I only see three tables, the first three in your list. It doesn't show airtime.

Mike N

I still get the same.

I've had a look at the encoding of the sql and it seems that it is running in ASCII mode

sudo -u postgres psql -c "SHOW SERVER_ENCODING"

root@server2:~# sudo -u postgres psql -c "SHOW SERVER_ENCODING"

could not change directory to "/root"

server_encoding

-----------------

SQL_ASCII

(1 row)

I've tried generating the locales again too.

root@server2:~# dpkg-reconfigure locales

Generating locales...

en_US.UTF-8... up-to-date

Generation complete.

Mike N

I've also restarted by the way.

I shall now re-install the system, change locales and then restart before commencing the install procedure again.

Getting a new error with psql

Is the server running locally and accepting

Martin Konecny

Try this:

sudo apt-get purge postgresql

sudo apt-get install postgresql

This basically reinstalls postgresql with the new locale settings which means the new database will also be UTF-8 encoded.

Mike N

I set the locales, re-installed psql using your method and then installed airtime. Still get the same problem.

Also, why is SFTP disabled when I install airtime?

I get this error once I re-install.

* Checking database for correct encoding

* and try the install again

just found the solution!!!!

you have to do this before installing everything:

sudo locale-gen en_GB.UTF-8

sudo update-locale LANG=en_GB.UTF-8

then:

nano /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local

add thes lines:

ru_RU.UTF-8 UTF-8

en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8

en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

then:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

now reboot and start the installation , remember you have to do this before postgresql!!!

Howdy, Stranger!
