Installing the en_US.UTF-8 locale in the operating system

Kaspersky Web Traffic Security requires the en_US.UTF-8 locale to be installed in the operating system. If this locale is not installed in the system, you install it.

To check whether the en_US.UTF-8 locale is available:

  1. Run the following command:

    locale -a

  2. Check if the list includes the en_US.UTF-8 or en_US.utf8 locale.

If the locale is already installed, no further action is required.

To install the en_US.UTF-8 locale:

  1. Run the following commands:
    • For CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Rocky Linux, and RED OS:

      yum install glibc-langpack-en

    • For Ubuntu, Debian:

      apt install locales

      dpkg-reconfigure locales

    • For ALT Server:

      apt-get install glibc-locales

    The locale is added to the operating system.

  2. Verify that the locale has been added successfully. To do so, execute the command:

    locale -a
