> which postgresql Version? PSQL 9.3.6 @ Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
In the meantime, I played around with pgadmin a little bit: 1) Using pgadmin I can create records containing 'ἀγοραζε' (the sample above) or German Umlaute ä, ö, ü, so it's definetly no database problem. 2) Going to Appadmin https://testmachine/testapp/appadmin/select/db?query=db.test.id%3E0 displays the records without Problem 3) As soon as I edit and save, I'll get a <type 'exceptions.UnicodeDecodeError'> 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe1 in position 114: ordinal not in range(128) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/www-data/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 227, in restricted exec ccode in environment File "/home/www-data/web2py/applications/testapp/controllers/appadmin.py", line 704, in <module> File "/home/www-data/web2py/gluon/globals.py", line 393, in <lambda> self._caller = lambda f: f() File "/home/www-data/web2py/applications/testapp/controllers/appadmin.py", line 343, in update if form.accepts(request.vars, session): File "/home/www-data/web2py/gluon/sqlhtml.py", line 1677, in accepts if pk: File "/home/www-data/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/objects.py", line 2117, in update uploadfolder = pjoin( File "/home/www-data/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/adapters/base.py", line 988, in update raise e UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe1 in position 114: ordinal not in range(128) Am Sonntag, 26.
