The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3872 Logged by: David Gradwell Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.3-beta3 Operating system: Windows Server 2003 Description: backslash_quote = off doesn't work any more Details:
set backslash_quote = off in postgresql.conf create table a (a1 varchar(100)) insert into a(a1) values ( '\602') gives ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x82' It worked fine in 8.2 !! In fact to meet the sql standard we shouldn't have to change the conf file. The default should be SQL compliance !! I can email the current and 8.2 conf files if helpful.
