Hi,
I'm running PostgreSQL v8 beta4 on Win2K. The default language selected in Win2K is Big5.
I am using the Windows installer to install it. Everything is left as default except that the locale for initdb is set to "traditional-chinese".
Here is a test (run in pgadmin III): 1. createdb db1 -E Unicode 2. psql db1 3. create table t1 ( s varchar(20) primary key ); 4. insert into t1 values('xyz'); Note that x, y and z are all Chinese characters. 5. select * from t1; It shows that record just fine. 6. select * from t1 where s='xyz'; It fails to find that record. 7. select * from t1 where s like 'xy%'; It finds that record.
If I reinstall pgsql but leave the locale as the default ("C"), then the above test passes.
BTW, the locale for traditional chinese in postgresql.conf is set to "traditional-chinese" literally. Shouldn't it be zh_TW?
Thanks!
