Terminal Access Issues After installing TigerVNC
in Linux
Applies to:
Linux OS - Version Oracle Linux 7.0 and later Linux x86-64
Symptoms
When try to start the Terminal by clicking the menu item Applications > Accessories > Terminal, it does not start. Get a Starting Terminal entry in the taskbar, after a few seconds, then close it automatically No terminal appears. However, other applications work fine.
Changes
Installed TigerVNC on server.
Cause
UTF-8 locale configuration was missing in /etc/locale.conf
Solution
If using a non UTF-8 locale, use the localectl utility to configure a UTF-8 locale e.g.:
$ localectl set-locale en_US.UTF-8 $ localectl status | grep LANG $ systemctl restart systemd-localed.service
