Ubuntu can’t open Gnome terminal and display the error message exited status 8

I’ve been playing around with some environments for my virtual machine lately, and since I don’t have much experience, I’m just following the path of the server. However, once the virtual machine is restarted later, something goes wrong. The GNOME terminal cannot be opened. Start gnOMe-Terminal using Xterm.
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 8

The next time I look it up, it’s a coding problem. Just use the command sudo DPkg-reconfigure locales to add the code you want.

You think that’s the end of it?If you didn’t solve it, it should be the same problem I encountered. I accidentally found that when I configured the environment for my virtual machine, I actually configured another statement: export LC_ALL=C. In this way, no matter how I configured my code, I could not open the terminal in any way.

I finally get rid of that, and the locale in the terminal, works!
