I am trying to remove accents from a string. I found a nice
solution for this on postgresqlfr, using the to_ascii()
function.
Now, the problem I have is :
mydb=# SELECT to_ascii(convert('abcdef', 'LATIN9'));
ERROR: encoding conversion from UTF8 to ASCII not supported
Why is the conversion to LATIN9 not working as expected ?
My database's encoding is UTF8.
Maybe you actually want to
test=> select to_ascii(convert('ábcdêf', 'LATIN9'), 'LATIN9');
to_ascii
----------
abcdef
(1 row)
Indeed !!!
Thanks a lot !
I suppose that not giving the encoding to 'to_ascii'
defaulted to the database encoding ?
Sorry for this mistake, I did not realize that this setting
existed for the to_ascii function...
Thanks again !
