Myrna van Lunteren commented on DERBY-834:
------------------------------------------

This behavior is to be expected when the test is run on a machine that does not have the en_US locale set. 

observe this in the .sql: 
----------------------- 
create procedure checkDatabaseLoc(in locale char(12)) parameter style java language java external name 'org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.tests.i18n.DefaultLocale.checkDatabaseLocale'; 
create procedure checkRDefaultLoc() parameter style java language java external name 'org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.tests.i18n.DefaultLocale.checkRDefaultLocale'; 
-- this current database was created with the default locale 
call checkDatabaseLoc('en_US'); 
call checkRDefaultLoc(); 
------------------------ 
so, it assumes that the default locale was en_US. 

Observe also for example this in the DefaultLocale.java: 
------------------------ 
// used in urlLocale test 
public static void checkRDefaultLocale() throws SQLException 
{ 
System.out.println(savedLocale); 
if (!savedLocale.equals("en_US")) 
throw new SQLException("wrong_locale"); 
} 
-------------------------- 

Now, whether this is a reasonable assumption is a different question... 

So far, the only way I have found of ensuring that the test runs with default locale set to en_US is by hacking into the test harness' jvm.java and forcing user.country to US and user.language to en. 

Is that an acceptable thing to do? 

I will experiment some more with different ways of setting this parameter.

> I don't see this test on my platform (XP, JDK 1.4, en_US locale), maybe it's a Norwegian thing :)
