So I added:
LANG=C
LC_ALL=C
to the /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgres file and stop, restarted the server. I
then dropped and recreated the database. However still same results.
Is this only my installation that has this problem? It's just a very
plain RedHat 6.2 with rpm'd install of Postgres, so I'm a little wary
about how many other people will be having this problem as well.
Cheers,
Alex
