Databases in 7.4 were encoded as utf-8. Now when importing postgresql gives the following error:

ERROR:  encoding UTF8 does not match server's locale en_US

It looks like you need to run initdb with LANG set to en_US.utf8,
not just en_US.

I executed the command:

su postgres -c "/usr/lib/postgresql/8.3/bin/initdb -E UNICODE --locale nl_BE.utf8 -D /home/pgsql/8"

And now i can use utf-8.

Only...

One database was in LATIN9. When creating this database i got the same error.

Command:
CREATE DATABASE "hardsoft" WITH OWNER = postgres TEMPLATE = template0 ENCODING = 'LATIN9';

Error:
ERROR: encoding LATIN9 does not match server's locale nl_BE.utf8
SQL state: XX000
Detail: The server's LC_CTYPE setting requires encoding UTF8.

Can i only use nl_BE and UTF-8 now?
Why can't i use LATIN9 anymore?
Is bacula 8.3 stricter in this respect to 7.4?
