If you are attempting to install CLM 4.6 on Red Hat Linux 7, you will undoubtedly run into issue where the Install Planner complains:

“Database is configured for UNICODE but your LANG is set to <b>null</b>

To save you the time from searching through the internet, here’s what you do:

On the Database Server and AR Server, ensure the following is set:
1. /etc/locale.conf
  LANG=”en_US.utf8″
  LC_ALL=”en_US.utf8″
  NLS_LANG=”en_US.utf8″
2. /root/.bash_profile and /home/oracle/.bash_profile
  export LANG=”en_US.utf8″
  export LC_ALL=”en_US.utf8″
  export NLS_LANG=”en_US.utf8″
3. Reboot server after the above changes.

Re-run the Install Planner and you should be successful.
