How to fix this error?

Find an application server that supports the codepage of the target
language and set up a background process there. Then log on to this
application server to schedule the automatic distribution run.
You need to log on to the system in a language that is compatiable with
the codepage of the target language. Ideally, you should log on in the
target langauge.
