Sorta looks like you based that locale on an ISO 8859-1 locale, not a UTF8 locale. AFAICT from looking at the code, PG is seeing that nl_langinfo(CODESET) returns "ISO-8859-1" or some variant spelling, so it complains. 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
