The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3453 Logged by: ITAGAKI Takahiro Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.2, 8.3dev Operating system: independent (especially Windows) Description: Error on COPY TO/FROM 'non-ascii-path' Details:
When I set postgres a different character encoding from OS, COPY TO/FROM 'non-ascii-path' cannot open the path. The cause of the problem is that we pass path-strings encoded in the server encoding to open() directly without respect to the OS's native encodings. It will be worse in Windows East Asia versions; Postgres doesn't support their encodings as server encodings, so we cannot use non-ascii filenames there. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
