Hi Using a Delphi app with ZEOS components to connect to server (on localhost) and get this message: SQL Error: invalid encoding name in PGCLIENTENCODING: WIN1252 (Running Windows 7 (64x), postgres 8.3.7) Initially I installed with server and client encoding as WIN1252. But since I got the error I tried an re-installing with locale = C, encoding = LATIN1 (server and client). But this did not solve the problem. >From the little info I found on the web, I also tried "SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'LATIN1'" but also had no effect. Read a couple of times about *environment variable* PGCLIENTENCODING, but could find no such variable. Heard about colleagues having some problems installing on Windows7. Could this be one of them? Any help would be appreciated. gmbouwer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
