Spontaneous character encoding change?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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
