Environment variable for terminator

[goodrench]

I am having trouble with terminator all of the sudden on one of my machines. Keeps giving the error "TERM environment variable not set." whenever I type "clear".
also gives the error "Error opening terminal: unknown." when I try to edit a file with nano.
running the command "declare -x TERM=xterm" will work until the window is closed.
Everything in gnome-terminal works fine but in terminator things are not so well.
Any ideas?

BTW When I run the command "echo $TERM" it says dumb.

I've added a comment as this one was driving me mad the other day, trying to track down what I had changed.

In the end I explicitly set TERM in my .profile file and now terminator works correctly.

I thought I tried that earlier and it did not work.
I tried it again and all is well again.
Thanks guys.
