Pls help me to set the japanese locale in Solaris 10. I have checked JP locale has been already installed on Solaris BOX.

Thanks,

What does

locale -a

show?

Normally what you do is to take the locale you want (why I asked above) and
then assign LC variables, the ones you see in the locale command.
This should be done for any account that needs the locale during login.

locale
LANG=C.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="C.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=

In this example C is the locale (UNIX default). You would assign

export LANG=JP-UTF16

Or whatever the name of your locale is, to each of the variables. LC_ALL is not required to be set, but setting it overrides others.
