After upgrading to pg 9.0.3 (from 8.4.2) on my Mac OS 10.6.2 machine i find this in my log file (a lot): <postgres%192.168.254.210%2011-03-03 16:37:30 CET%22021>STATEMENT: SELECT pg_file_read('pg_log/postgresql-2011-03-03_000000.log', 250000, $ <postgres%192.168.254.210%2011-03-03 16:37:32 CET%22021>ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe3bc74 Apparently pg doesn't like the contents of that logfile. The folks from the pgadmin list (i noticed the problem using the pgadmin logviewer and asked for help there) advised me to change LC_messages locale to 'C' (i had it on 'de_DE-UTF8' before), but that doesn't appear to help. The Server encoding is UTF8. No special client encoding is set.
