You are showing us the *client*'s locale environment, which has little to do with what the server's environment is, and even less to do with what locale initdb was run in. But it's initdb's locale that determines what the server will consider sort ordering to be. In this case it looks like the 7.2 server is using en_US (or something like it) while the 7.2.1 server is pretty clearly using C locale. If you don't like the setting you'll need to re-initdb ... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
