Re: Error inserting RFC1738-encoded URLs

Thanks for you reply Marti. I wil ltry to complete the description of the problem.

I get errors like this:

Error inserting data: INSERT INTO squid_access ( bytes, event, elapsed, rfc931, timestamp, url, method, peer, mimetype, remotehost, code) VALUES ( ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe97469
HINT: This error can also happen if the byte sequence does not match the encoding expected by the server, which is controlled by "client_encoding".


I am sending the data to the database trough the DBI perl module,
tomorrow I will make sure that the data is read as UTF8 but I think I had previously already tried to encode this a UTF8. (not sure, it was some weeks ago).

Anyway, with the new data you continue to think the problem is that the data is sent with the bad encoding?.

Regards,
Javier

You forgot the most important thing: *What's* the error that you get?

Since I have to guess, I suspect you're sending these strings to
Postgres in a non-UTF-8 encoding.

This isn't a valid URL anyway -- you can't have unquoted "Ó" or "í"
characters since they're not valid ASCII. But a 'varchar' field would
accept them anyway if you send them in the right encoding.

Marti
