perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your local开发者_JS百科e settings:
    LANGUAGE = (unset),
    LC_ALL = (unset),
    LANG = "en_CA.UTF-8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

I keep getting this message. I am running Debian on a VPS. I've tried numerous solutions I've found through Google, none have helped. What do I do?

Try setting the locales directly this way, it worked for me on Ubuntu 10.04, just tailor the locales to your needs:

root@hostname:~# export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
root@hostname:~# export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
root@hostname:~# export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
root@hostname:~# locale-gen en_US.UTF-8

and then:

root@hostname:~# dpkg-reconfigure locales

Hope this can help!
