  LANG=ja_JP.eucJP
  LC_CTYPE="ja_JP.eucJP"

  LC_TIME="ja_JP.eucJP"

  LC_MONETARY="ja_JP.eucJP"
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users uninstalling Websphere MQ v8 on Solaris using "ja" locale
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  Solaris SPARC, Solaris x86-64
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  A limitation of the product uninstall scripts on Solaris caused
  the FDC to be generated if the uninstallation was performed with
  a locale configuration not recognized by MQ.
  
  The uninstall is able to complete successfully despite
  generating the FDC.
  

Problem conclusion

• The Solaris uninstall scripts have been modified to run in a
  language neutral environment if the system locale is not
  recognized by MQ.
