I've re-initialised it again with: --locale=hu_HU.UTF-8 --encoding=UTF-8 which generated everything LC_* to hu_HU.UTF-8. I've created the DBs with createdb: createdb -U pgsql "$DBNAME" -E "UTF-8" --locale="hu_HU.UTF-8" Example: createdb -U pgsql spiritnet -E UTF-8 --locale=hu_HU.UTF-8 spiritnet=# show lc_collate; lc_collate ------------- hu_HU.UTF-8 (1 row) spiritnet=# show lc_ctype; lc_ctype ------------- hu_HU.UTF-8 Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype -----------------------+-------+-----------+-------------+------------- spiritnet | pgsql | UTF8 | hu_HU.UTF-8 | hu_HU.UTF-8 And it STILL NOT working, the order by is absolutly incorrect. All chars with accents, are located at the END of the list. Is it a problem only with 9.0.3? For me, your test shows: "SyrovÃ" "SÃs" "Vondra" "ÅiÅka" instead your correct order. Any ideas?
