Title: I have a problem with bitcoin-qt in Arch Linux
Post by: xexio on September 03, 2013, 10:24:27 PM

Hi.

When I launched the program, this show me the next message:

Code:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
Aborted (core dumped)

What is the problem?

It might help if you specify where the program came from. Did you compile it from source yourself? Get it from a repository or somewhere else?

Try this:

export LC_ALL=C

It's not a fix, it's more of a workaround, it should not require locale to be "C" for working, you should report the problem in the Development section or here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues

No, I modified my locale.gen and locale.conf and I fixed it.

Thanks to all.
