Thread: server error messages language

can the server error messages language be changed somehow without
remaking it from the sources? the software catches english error
messages for now & handles them well, but the freshly installed from rpm
postgres returns error messages in russian & this causes software errors.

export LC_MESSAGES=C

in your server's environment.

There's a full description of this in the Administrator's Guide.

Change your default locale for the postgres user from ru_RU to en_US?
