TApplicationException error during initialization of Tableau Server 2025.1.7 on Linux

Publish Date: Jun 5, 2026
Description
The user encountered a TApplicationException error related to the internal processing of completeStartDatabase during the initial installation of Tableau Server version 2025.1.7 on Linux.
Resolution

Temporarily set locale and rerun initialization :-

Temporarily set the environment variables LANG and LC_ALL to en_US.utf8 and rerun the initialization process.

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

Set system-wide locale for persistence (recommended) :-

Make the locale fix permanent for the tableau user by adding the following commands to the user's profile: -

          sudo localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8

     

 Note: Setting the system-wide locale using localectl will change the default OS language and formatting. This should only be done if acceptable in the   customer’s environment. Alternatively, setting the locale temporarily during initialization is sufficient to complete the setup.

 

 Install the English locale package to ensure its availability during future updates using the command:- 

         sudo dnf install glibc-langpack-en -y.
