Postgres LATIN1 to UTF-8

Hi Folks, Does anyone have a recommended method for converting a Postgres database from LATIN1 to UTF-8? Am I best sticking to postgres tools or will dumpdata help? I already have accents in my LATIN1 data, and postgres doesn't like importing these back into a database with encoding utf8.

Re: Why INSERT instead of UPDATE?

This is a tough one, everything looks okay. I would try removing the categories variable from your model class just to see if that is causing problems. By the way, you can get that categories list from an instance of the Course class in the following way c.coursecategories_set.all() presuming Cours

Re: Displaying link in template based on m2m data

Don't do it in the template layer! Why not get the list of events in the view layer, do the iterate there and mark which ones the current user is attending. Then you have the logic in python and he template layer is kept simple. On Nov 7, 2:34 am, Patrick Deuley wrote: > I've got a list of even

What does your PartialCourseForm class look like? The code you have there looks okay to me. On Nov 7, 3:21 pm, Torbjorn wrote: > Hi, I want to update a record but somehow it becomes an INSERT > instead. This is my code: > > def editcourse(request, course_id): >     course= Course.objects.get(id

Re: Multi-table Inheritance: How to add child to parent model?

Thank you, Michael, but I need to use multi-table rather than abstract inheritance in this instance, as the Place model already exists as a concrete model, and I'm adding the Restaurant model. Also, for database design reasons, I'd prefer to keep the tables separate. On Nov 6, 9:02 pm, Michael S

Assuming your app is named 'gallery' with a model named 'photo', I believe the call should be: {% get_comment_count for gallery.photo as comment_count %} On Nov 6, 5:12 pm, Bobby Roberts wrote: > howdy - > > i'm trying to use comments on my site as follows: > > {% get_comment_count for gallery

Re: Multi-table Inheritance: How to add child to parent model?

As far as I know there is no existing api to convert a 'Place' into a 'Restaurant' with multi-table inheritance in django. There is a ticket about this [1]. And in another ticket [2] that is marked as a duplicate but seems to have an example of how to solve this problem until there is a standard ap
