LC_COLLATE should be interesting for sort order, and while both is utf8, it should work or am I totally wrong? As far as I read right now, LC_COLLATE is a read_only variable which is used while initdb. But why does the pg_upgrade script doesn't see that utf8 and UTF-8 are the same? Is it just a string compare? greetz Bernhard -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
