You're lying to the server about the client encoding in one or both
cases. I can't know which without knowing what program you're talking to
the server with and how it's set up.
'SET client_encoding' tells the server what encoding to expect incoming
data in. It doesn't change what encoding the client sends that data in.
If your client has a different default encoding to that of the server,
you can inform the server that the client will be sending differently
encoded data.
In other words, you can't use 'SET client_encoding' to change what
encoding the client uses, only how the server interprets the bytes it
gets from the client.
