How to set locale to languange other than english

Hello.

I want to set my locale to Japanese. (showing Japanese output when I type  ls command in a terminal)

I tried to install the language pack, and set the environment variable LANG, but it doesn't work. I have googled that and tried some ways but still can't slove this problem. Since TurnKey Linux Virtual Appliance is only en-GB locale, I think this is a common issue. If someone know how to do that please help me. You will be very appreciated. Thanks!

 

I am using Ruby on Rails appliance. Some thing i have tried like

apt-get install language-pack-ja
export LANG=ja
