Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding

      When trying to start Fluent.  The start window appears.   I set working dir, num processors and press start.

      Then the system crashes

      $ fluent
      /opt/ohpc/pub/apps/ansys/v212/fluent/fluent21.2.0/bin/fluent -r21.2.0

      Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

      What is the operating system that is installed?
      Are you running directly on the machine or using a remote viewing software? If remote, what are you using?
