How to find coded character set for a locale in a Linux session
1. From the Linux command prompt, type the locale command:
locale
The output of "locale" should be something like this:
[root@kafka02 ~]# locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
[root@kafka02 ~]#
2. Find the "codeset name" associated with the locale:
locale charmap
The output of "locale charmap" is the "codeset name" for the locale, and it should be something like this:
[root@kafka02 ~]# locale charmap
UTF-8
[root@kafka02 ~]#
