Linux System Code Modification

The default encoding of the system in the Linux server is  en_US.UTF-8 , and the default Chinese encoding in FineBI is zh_cn.UTF-8 , so there will be garbled characters when exporting Excel in BI applications, so the encoding of the Linux system should be changed to zh_CN .UTF-8 . Modification methods include global modification and local modification.

Global modification is a modification method that is effective for the entire system, so that the entire system is adapted to the system code. The method is to add the encoding method in the system configuration file to overwrite the default method. The command executed is as follows:

vi /etc/profile

After opening the file, add the following command on the last line:

export LC_ALL="zh_CN.UTF-8" export LANG="zh_CN.UTF-8"

After saving and exiting, execute the command to take effect of the file:

source /etc/profile

Modification is complete.

Sometimes the code in the Linux system cannot be used uniformly, but the code is only used for a certain user, that is, when FineBI is used, the code can only be used under the system user. Therefore, when editing the configuration file, you need to edit it under this user.

To set the encoding for user wind, execute the following command:

vi /home/wind/.bash_profile

On the last line enter:

export LC_ALL="zh_CN.UTF-8" export LANG="zh_CN.UTF-8"

Execute the source command again:

source /home/wind/.bash_profile

Note: ./bash_profile is a file that each user can use to enter specific shell information for their own use.
