How / where are you setting the client_encoding? I'm wonder if it's really set when the pg_dump / pg_restore commands are being issued, or if you're inheriting a different encoding along with the new connection it gets. You can try: alter user set client_encoding='UTF8' for the postgres user to see if that helps. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
