Install on fresh Ubuntu 16.04 fails

Hi!

I’m trying to install Gitlab CE on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 Server (Omnibus installation). I already installed it successfully the same way some months ago on another 16.04 server. With the current version(s) it does not seem to work any more.

Has someone encountered similiar problems?

Thank you!
Thomas

Here the error message during apt-get install gitlab-ce:

There was an error running gitlab-ctl reconfigure:

execute[/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/initdb -D /var/opt/gitlab/postgresql/data -E UTF8] (postgresql::enable line 80) had an error: Mixlib::ShellOut::ShellCommandFailed: Expected process to exit with [0], but received '1'

STDERR: initdb: encoding mismatch
The encoding you selected (UTF8) and the encoding that the
selected locale uses (LATIN1) do not match.  This would lead to
misbehavior in various character string processing functions.
Rerun initdb and either do not specify an encoding explicitly,
or choose a matching combination.

If anyone has the same problem: You have to set the default locale of the system to an UTF-8 charset (in /etc/locale/default). After I changed the default locale, the installation was no problem.
