Has anyone ever seen a database spontaneously change character sets? I could have sworn that all databases in my replication slave database cluster were set up as SQL_ASCII. Now they are all UNICODE, and slony is failing to replicate, due to invalid byte sequences. Now I can't really *swear* that the databases weren't UNICODE all along but I do know for sure: - that I intended them to be SQL_ASCII - that I would make an effort to avoid UNICODE until we upgrade to 8.1 - that slony has been replicating without problem on this database for some months The only unusual thing that has been done with that database recently is a failed attempt to upgrade slony from 1.1 to 1.5. This was about 3 days before slony ran in to character set problems. I have looked through the logs and found nothing of interest. Any ideas? This is non-production, on PostgreSQL 8.0.3 __ Marc
