The only supported operating system locale definition for DPOD is en_US.UTF-8.

For appliance installation, this locale is configured automatically.

Non-Appliance installation should be configured to the supported locale using the following steps.

Identifying the current locale

login to the Non-Appliance server using SSH and run the following commandDue to SELinux behavior change in RHEL 8.x, a system that enforces SELinux policy might result in DPOD services failing to start.

The following log records (or similar) might be found in the system log /var/log/messages:

...

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
localectl status

The command output should be:

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
       VC Keymap: us
      X11 Layout: us

Setting correct locale

If the Non-Appliance server is configured with a different locale - configure the supported locale:

Set the new locale using the following command:

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Use the same steps as before to identify the current locale:

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
localectl status
System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
       VC Keymap: us
      X11 Layout: us
