Bummer. So there's no one encoding I can set it to :( Actually, since the phpPgAdmin interface only allows the creation of databases via the create database screen, could we just always set it to the encoding of template1? How do I get the encoding of the server? Is that the same as the encoding of template1? > I agree that this isn't ideal, but I don't see any way to improve it. > If you like, we could put in code to *enforce* a restriction to 7-bit > ASCII in database names (and user and group names too) ... but that > doesn't seem like a big improvement. I would suggest force Unicode... Chris ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
