Description Aaron Sowry cendio 2013-02-28 17:03:55 CET 
This is due to the following line in checkenvironment.py:

locale.setlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE, "")

If you are restarting a VSM service remotely from OS X for example, the exported LC_CTYPE is "UTF-8", which is an unsupported locale setting. This means that the VSM service fails to start up again, which I imagine could be frustrating.
