In recent PG versions you can do SHOW LC_COLLATE and/or SHOW LC_CTYPE to verify the locale settings the server is using. Note that these are locked down based on the environment seen by initdb --- you can't change them just by inserting an environment setting into the postmaster start script. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
