The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 4098 Logged by: Jan-Peter Seifert Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.2 Operating system: Windows xp Description: Encoding problems Details:
The encoding of the source db/server is LATIN1. The data type of the field is text (The storage mode is extended). It's/was possible to add characters available in CP1252 but not in LATIN1 like the Euro character (code 80). When exporting to UTF8 via "pg_dump -o -U postgres -E UTF-8 ..." (iconv?) it just adds the character with the code "C2" before the Euro character in the dump. When importing the dump to a server/db with CP1252 it just throws an error because of the inconvertible character (0xc280) and seems to stop with no further error messages (at least the whole table in question is empty although filled in the source db). It wasn't an issue before the restrictions were put in place, because the C locale is insufficient. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
