you can use the below command on terminal

export LC_ALL=C

Generating locales

Missing locales are generated with locale-gen:

locale-gen en_US.UTF-8

Alternatively a locale file can be created manually with localedef:[1]

localedef -i en_US -f UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8

Setting Locale Settings

The locale settings can be set (to en_US.UTF-8 in the example) as follows:

export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
dpkg-reconfigure locales

The dpkg-reconfigure locales command will open a dialog under Debian for selecting the desired locale. This dialog will not appear under Ubuntu. The Configure Locales in Ubuntu article shows how to find the information regarding Ubuntu.


vim /etc/default/locale

add to it:

LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"

Amazon Linux AMI

Permanent solution for ohmyzsh:

$ vim ~/.zshrc

Write there below:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

Update changes in current shell by: $ source ~/.zshrc


adding the following lines to my /etc/environment file worked

LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
