Somewhere between 8.2 and 9.0 convert() was redefined to take and return bytea, not text, to reflect the fact that the data it deals in isn't necessarily encoded in the database's character encoding. This was part of a general tightening up to ensure that text that ought to be in the database encoding really is. There are some related functions now that convert between text (assumed to be in the database encoding) and bytea strings in a specified encoding. You probably want to switch over to using those. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
