I'm not a PSQL dev, just a normal user. If you let me know how to get you a backtrace, I'd be happy to help.
Here are simpler repro steps (no registry hacking required): https://gist.github.com/1142428 Note the last line - the psql binary doesn't quit or crash with the "Not enough memory." error, it just fails to perform the specified command when the cmd.exe code page is set to 65001. -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Momjian [mailto:br...@momjian.us] Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2011 7:35 AM To: Gavin Kistner Cc: pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [BUGS] BUG #6161: Not enough memory error in psql with UTF8 console Wow, that is odd.
