Hi Dave, Guillaume and All,

Some of you (Dave & Guillaume) may remember I had a problem with PG Admin III 
1.6, that did not display error messages (only the code but not the message it 
self) when PG Admin III 1.4 and psql will display the full error message.

After a bit of investigation with Guillaume we defined it was down to my server 
configuration (PG 8.1 on Ubuntu 6.06) but could not find what was wrong.

It looks like it was a locale configuration problem.
Last week, I had an upgrade of the locales package and then of PostgreSQL 
(going to 8.1.9): as a result my PostgreSQL would not run anymore.

After a lot of looking around I realised the error came from the locale 
definition, for some reason the collate order seems not to be defined in 
french. Hence with a definition of /etc/environement like 
LANGUAGE=fr_FR
LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LANG=fr_FR

Not only I did not get any errors with my Linux commands, and PostgreSQL will 
start BUT also I now have the error messages (in english) from the PG Admin 
Query Tool ! ! 
HURRAH ! ! HURRAH ! !  HURRAH ! ! 

I don't understand why the locales definition on the server might change 
something in the way PG Admin display error messages (when others like PG Admin 
1.4 and psql are not bothered) ... but it looks like it does !

Anyway, after being a pain for a while (in particular for Guillaume and Dave), 
I wanted to share my joice with you guys ... and that might help somebody else 
in the future.

Thanks to all who helped me fixing this


Have fun and ... sorry for the long email,
