Infrastructure Software

Hi,

I have a Solaris (SunOS 5.10) installed, by default with the en_AU.UTF-8 locale. I want (HAVE) to change it to en_US.UTF-8. Trying to install OBIEE and it won't let me do it unless I have the US locale set (and it also confirms this in the documentation)

With AU, I have no issues whatsoever, so I installed the language package and now locale -a shows "en_US.UTF-8".

Problem is even with LC_ALL set in etc/default/init, the others LC_* default to "C" after a reboot and throw up the "couldn't set locale correctly" error. I've added each LC_* manually to the init file but get the same result so I've removed those.

Below are some outputs I'm getting. Tried everything I can think of/google.

LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

I'm new to Solaris/Unix so try to keep answers simple and step by step. Any help would be appreciated !
