Actually I did.

I also rebooted - to see if changes to /etc/environment effected anything.

Still getting the slew of errors each time I open the wwsympa web page.

Any other thoughts, or suggestions on how to track this down?  It looks 
like the error is generated by this swatch of code in Language.pm

    foreach my $type (&POSIX::LC_ALL, &POSIX::LC_TIME) {
        my $success;
        foreach my $try ($locale.'.'.$locale2charset{$locale},
                         $locale.'.'.uc($locale2charset{$locale}),  ## 
UpperCase
 required for FreeBSD
                         $locale_dashless, ## Required on HPUX
                         $locale,
                         $lang
                         ) {
            if (&setlocale($type, $try)) {
                $success = 1;
                last;
            }
        }
        unless ($success) {
            &do_log('err','Failed to setlocale(%s) ; you either have a 
problem with the catalogue .mo files or you should extend available 
locales in  your /etc/locale.gen (or /etc/sysconfig/i18n) file', $locale);
            return undef;
        }

I'm guessing something isn't quite set up right going into this. I'm 
wondering if Sympa is looking for something in a place other than where 
Debian puts it (I built from source, since the Debian package is pretty 
far behind Sympa 5).  Perhaps configuring with a different location for 
the locale directory or some such?

Thanks

Miles
