On Unix-ish systems, "locale -a" should provide the set of

Maybe you don't have a suitable locale installed.

The main entry for lc_time in
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/runtime-config-client.html#RUNTIME-CONFIG-CLIENT-FORMAT
says "Acceptable values are system-dependent; see Section 23.1 for more
information", and if you follow that link, you'll read
What locales are available on your system under what names depends on
what was provided by the operating system vendor and what was
installed. On most Unix systems, the command locale -a will provide a
list of available locales.
Not sure what more we could say.
