I have the same problem.

Plex server version 1.15.4.993

Please check the system’s locale

On Ubuntu,
https://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/wiki/Configure_Locales_in_Ubuntu

It is nearly the same for other distributions.

I have the same problem with the following locale : en_US.UTF-8 or fr_FR.UTF-8 …
My distributions : Debian 10
My Plex server Version : 1.15.5.994

any idea ?

I am also seeing this come up when watching server status/alerts

Version 1.15.8.1163 running on Ubuntu 16.04.6

edit:

doesn’t seem to be a file naming issue (See below)

~# locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

It doesn’t show in the actual library entry, or in settings text, just in the server alerts, so not particularly breaking anything… just interesting behavior.

I have the same issue and switching from fr_FR.UTF-8 to en_US.UTF-8 + rebooting had no effect.

Anyway, I should be allowed to keep my system on the locale I want, and the issue is obviously somewhere else…

Some pages are really messy with this issue:

Any other idea ?

Have you regenerated the locale tables?
This maps ASCII codes to the display characters.

I suggest this because it appears you have issues with certain characters only.

Maybe this fixes it https://www.skyminds.net/linux-cannot-set-default-locale/

Seems to be fixed since a recent update (not sure wich one)

Oh god yes ! Finnaly xD I think as well this is fixed will do some checks soon
