Update: I was able to get by it by resetting my LANG to en_US.UTF-8:

# localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
# locale -a 

C
C.UTF-8
en_US.utf8
POSIX

Original Message:

Similar to @sand7000 I am also getting an "Invalid Locale" error when trying to add a server. Same locale settings:

C
C.UTF-8
POSIX
en_US.utf8

I only found another dead-end Reddit thread, has anyone else run into this?

Update. Manual build and install worked:

makepkg
sudo rm /usr/share/doc/vmware-horizon-client/patches/
sudo pacman -U vmware-horizon-
.tar.zst

Problem I mentioned happened only while using yay to automatically update vmware-horizon-client.

What does this give? pacman -Qo /usr/share/doc/vmware-horizon-client/patches/

Just remove the files if no package is returned...

Did you install with the installer (and not pacman) before?

I found a solution, I configured VMware Blast and disabled H.264 decoding then the problem was solved :)

@jose1711 thanks, I was using "VMware Blast", but when I switch to "PCoIP", then nothing happens at all, the window does not open any more..

@boustanihani i had the same in the past. what worked for me was switching between protocols. maybe try that.

Since last update I'm only getting to see a black screen. Using latest Manjaro with Gnome Desktop.
