Something has broken my ownCloud server. I’ve not changed anything, so probably it’s a recent debian package upgrade that has broken it. I am seeing:
Setting locale to en_US.UTF-8/fr_FR.UTF-8/es_ES.UTF-8/de_DE.UTF-8/ru_RU.UTF-8/pt_BR.UTF-8/it_IT.UTF-8/ja_JP.UTF-8/zh_CN.UTF-8 failed
Please install one of these locales on your system and restart your webserver.
However I have en_US installed:
$ locale -a | fgrep en_US
en_US
en_US.iso885915
en_US.utf8
So I’m stuck.
Is the error message above an ownCloud error or your OS error?
Could you be more specific?
That error comes from ownCloud and is shown on the main page instead of fields for user-name and password.
The desktop client gives this message:
ownCloud

ownCloud – A safe home for all your dataI have the same problem. I have tried to use different versions of php without luck.
$ locale -a

@dimitry could you please give us a hand?
I have found this on GitHub.
Could you try it?
I have changed the intl.default_locale to: en_US.UTF-8, see the relevant output of phpinfo() but the problem persists @dimitry, please help
I don’t know the solution.
It seems like an web server / OS issue, and not rly an ownCloud issue.
In the GitHub issue that I send you people fixed their issue by adjusting the web server configs and the php configs.
I would google to find the solution.
Is the dash before the 8 the issue? OC is looking for “en_US.UTF-8”, but the output of ‘locale -a’ has no dash:
locale -a | fgrep en_US
en_US
en_US.iso885915
en_US.utf8You can take it as granted that I did that before I asked for help here.
I’m not 100% certain, but I think I had this same problem recently. I think I did these steps to fix it. I’m not sure, I didn’t take notes. Since then, I accidentally upgraded my php from 7.2 to 7.3, so I cannot test to see if this is the fix that did it or not.
Just in case I am remembering correctly, try looking here.

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"That was it, thank you @biffhero. I uncommented the ‘. ./etc/default/locale’ line in /etc/apache2/envvars and now it’s up again 
Same issue here on Debian Buster, PHP 7.2. Solved uncommenting ‘. ./etc/default/locale’ line in /etc/apache2/envvars. Thank you @biffhero
OMG. I have been working on this for 2 days and this solved it for me. php7.4 ubuntu server
