Bug Description

[impact]
The setup:

1) The user has LC_ALL set to a locale on their machine (or some other LC_* variable but it's usually LC_ALL).
2) This locale does not exist on an Ubuntu server.
3) The user sshes into the server.

ssh (at least with the settings that are default on Debian and Ubuntu and Fedora) send the value of LC_ALL to the remote server, where the default settings on Ubuntu allow this to be set in the environment of the process it launches.

Because we are now in a situation where LC_ALL is set to a value that is not valid for the system, various undesirable things happen, including ugly messages from cloud-init and perl complaining every time a perl process starts and the bug that the original description below describes.

[test case]
Configure the setup as described above. Ssh into the server and run "perl < /dev/null" and check for warnings.

[regression potential]
This adds a step to the startup of every login shell, which obviously is not entirely trivial. However, the new executable being invoked is very simple and even if it fails, the startup of the shell should not be inhibited.

[original description]

If LC_ALL is not set (which seems to be the default on a few server installations I've done now), mid way through installing, you get this backtrace and then the installation just hangs. You can ctrl-c out of it but the package is left half configured.

If it ends up installing ok for you, then there's some deep voodoo at work here! It's very repeatable on my quantal server installation.

We have seen this previously on a bunch of packages, where the locale
isn't configured. We particularly saw this on cloud images, which
wouldn't have an understanding of the required locale until first
login (& it might not be installed.)

Personally, i feel the bug is the locale not being configured properly
on te platform.. but I appreciate the packaging should handle this
with more grace.

That's what I did and it seems fine (easy to recreate on a canonistack instance): http://paste.ubuntu.com/5575795/

Looks like this was caused by a missing en_US entry in Julian's /usr/share/locale.

If LC_* isn't set, then AIUI locale "C" is implied; this should not need any further configuration and not break anything. I may be wrong though.

I know what is going wrong now.

ssh sets my LC_ to my client-side locale which happens to not exist on
the server side.

That is what screws up packaging - it fails when it gets to the postgres
parts.

Do you guys see this?

I think it's a general problem that doesn't just apply to maas here, and so perhaps an appropriate fix should be applied more generally?

If the server doesn't have a particular locale configured, it cannot be expected to work. I think the solutions are:
    1) Tell the user to generate the locale.
    2) Switch the locale to C or C.UTF-8 (not sure which) so that at least things will work until the system locale is configured as required.

I was going to suggest (1) but then found that there's already something in place for this. Is this working for you?

@Julian

Do you have a ~/.cloud-locale-test.skip file present? If not, do you see a /etc/profile.d/Z99-cloud-locale-test.sh file? The warning is provided by cloud-init; I wonder what version provides it, and if we need to SRU it? What version of cloud-init do you have?

I think the root cause is:

1. A user remote to the system has a different locale set that isn't configured on the system. This seems reasonable to me, and perhaps is going to become even more common that it is now.

2. This user uses ssh to install maas.

3. The postgresql-9.1 postinst fails with:

    Error: The locale requested by the environment is invalid.
    Error: could not create default cluster. Please create it manually with

      pg_createcluster 9.1 main --start

    or a similar command (see 'man pg_createcluster').

4. The subsequent DB initialisation needed by maas fails.

Solutions (one more added):

1) Tell the user to generate the locale, and do nothing else.

2) Switch the locale to C or C.UTF-8 (not sure which) so that at least things will work until the system locale is configured as required.

3) Require that everything functions correctly with an invalid locale set, including the postgresql-9.1 postinst.

The second option would require a modification to cloud-init, so adding a task for that and for feedback.

imo, this is either a bug in postgres because it fails to install when locale is set to invalid, or its user error.
I'm not sure if whether or not it will become more or less common.

More generally, there is a question of:
 is installing packages on ubuntu with an invalid locale a supported operation?

If so, then postgres has a bug (as do some other packages).

If not, then I'm not really sure what to do.

Martin Pitt (postgres maintainer for ubuntu) clearly stated it is not when closing bug 969462 as 'Invalid'

There was a lot of discussion of this on IRC today between myself, cjwatson, and smoser.

The common cause for wrong locales being set is that OpenSSH is passing them through as environment variables from client to server, without consideration of whether they are valid on the server.

Colin and I are agreed that OpenSSH should avoid setting invalid locales in the target environment. An upstream discussion of how to handle this can be found in https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1346 (and in particular, https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1346#c38).

In the near-term absence of an upstream solution for OpenSSH, I believe that cloud-init behavior should be changed to approximate such a design.

In descending order of priority:

- We must never leave the user with a shell with a broken locale setting. This causes a variety of problems; it makes the perl interpreter particularly noisy and annoying, but it also means users will have the wrong character set (ASCII vs UTF-8) than if they had set no locale at all in their environment (in which case they would get C.UTF-8 by default).
- We must never show a loud (16-line-long!) banner message telling users how to configure locales if the user's configured invalid locale is English. Nobody who is going to be reading English anyway needs this to be in their face. They should get a working locale and be able to get on with it, and if differences in LC_TIME between C and en_UK get in their way, they can use the normal techniques to resolve this.
- We should not show *this* loud banner message to users on a minimal image. We already have a motd informing users of minimal images that their system is minimized and not in a state meant for human interactive use. Our minimized image should be less verbose and do less handholding than a regular cloud image, and that means we should not include this banner from cloud-init on minimized images.
- I think the message is of limited value overall to users of non-English locales. First, while most of the upstream software we ship is quite well localized, I believe we do a mediocre job of localizing the Ubuntu-specific messages in the Ubuntu server; even where i18n support exists, I don't believe we are championing l10n for them or picking up the translations. So installing the langpacks isn't going to give a great experience in the user's target language. Second, because of the preceding, I believe the vast majority of actual Ubuntu Server users are comfortable navigating a CLI in English even if it is not their first language. And third, if a user does absolutely need their CLI to be in their native language, I believe the value provided to this user by having a banner message in English, even with embedded apt commands, is marginal relative to letting the user google documentation in their own language. For these reasons, I think the banner message should be dropped entirely.

I am happy to provide a patch to address either 1-3 or 1-4, whichever achieves consensus. If we don't do 4), I am inclined to also patch the message to condense it down from its current full-terminal size.

Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox) wrote :

Commandline usage is often quite broken in non-english, for example, sometimes manpages --help output are over translated, with flag names/options being translated, whilst the command in question doesn't accept non-english flags. Or worse only accepts non-english once in a different locale. Leaving users extremely confused, when flags don't work - or it is impossible to discover the english name of a flag.

Huge banners of gibberish are very pointless. If you want to be nice, at least that banner text should be preshipped localised, into all languages. And it should be short, probably a URL.

non-UTF8 locale fallback to C, instead of C.UTF-8 is very bad.

I have disabled forwarding of my client locale to the server by default, and I long time ago advocated that that should be the default on Ubuntu. I very much suffer from this, because many minimal systems do not have en_GB.UTF-8 generated/configured, or explicitly have it removed. I believe things got better, but not nearly so, especially when testing localised installs and trying to ssh into them from an en_GB.UTF-8 client.

I might be weird, but I expect to get the default behaviour of the remote systems; when i login into the remote machine. Not the one of the local one. And I see it as a privacy / information leak, to pass my local locale when I ssh into remote systems. This goes against the whole thin-client/multi-user mainframe pagadim, which i think is a bit historic in its usage - these days we have vastly more servers & computers, than humans. Thus on average there is only a fraction of a human logged into an average server.

RE: privacy - when i ssh push code to a public codehosting site, I do not want them to collect my local machine locale.

The people who i typically see use localised terminals are those that happen to have a latin based keyboard, which has all the keys of the english alphabet, and they are missordered. So if things are changed w.r.t. this, one should double check that e.g. german azerty client, can still azerty all the things across. Everyone else with more national layouts with missing english keys, have most likely a secondary en_US, and switch to that keyboard layout for terminal and ssh use - and would very much prefer and expect an english/C.UTF-8 locale. I know it sounds odd to derive locale from a keyboard layout; but for an interactive terminal, it is very intuitive.

ps Also screw $variables, and how dare countries to have money symbols to not be a variant of a dollar.

Inconveniently, the perl case isn't reasonably (IMHO) fixable in the context
of the cloud-init profile.d script. Ubuntu client systems set a healthy
collection of LC_* variables which are then passed over ssh, and 'locale'
will only tell us about a select few of them being invalid - whereas perl
balks if any of them are invalid.

So without either writing a lot of shell code to decipher which variables
are invalid without the help of locale, or Scott's approach of overriding
/all/ environment variables by setting LC_ALL, a complete solution to this
requires support in ssh.

Instead of quoting you could just reject argv[1] input if it

this more difficult.

Also, maybe you should try to 'setlocale(argv[1])' to check that
it is valid ? Ie, as it is right now if input is bogus then
the program will exit success and write bogus output.

Hmm maybe that would make sense. OTOH given the circumstances it's called
in I'm not sure this is very important.

I could ameliorate both your points by just hardcoding the default locale
to C.UTF-8...
