I need to install a package from GitHub (https://github.com/vaxilu/x-ui/) which is pure Chinese.

I tried to install it on Ubuntu 22.04 but during installation it asks some questions and I can't use an online translator because all I see is ????????.

My current locale is as below:

locale -a

C
C.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX

According to this question (Ubuntu display Chinese Characters - Encoding Issue) all I need is to set my locale to utf-8, but it's already set.

When I look at the source of the install.sh file of the above package I clearly see the Chinese characters and I'm able to translate them, which tells me they are in utf-8 encoding.

So why I can't see them when I SSH to my Ubuntu machine?

I'm running SSH from command prompt of Windows 10.

  • Does the same problem happen if you run ssh from Ubuntu under WSL2? If not, this is a Windows problem. – user68186 Dec 17 '22 at 16:55
  • Thanks. I have the same issue with Ubuntu (WSL2). – Omid Shojaee Dec 19 '22 at 13:12
  • Can you try it locally without getting ssh involved? You can use the live Ubuntu installation USB to boot Ubuntu and select Try Ubuntu option. Then try to install the app. This will tell me if the problem is limited to ssh or it affects the local terminal as well. – user68186 Dec 19 '22 at 15:03
