Hey,
I'm having some problems when inserting special characters into a
column. Here's the table:
----------------------------------
Table "public.users_history_ip"
Column | Type | Modifiers
------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------
id | bigint | not null default
nextval('users_history_ip_id_seq'::regclass)
userid | integer | not null
ip | inet | not null
hostname | character varying(512) | not null
geoip_info | character varying(512) | not null
start_time | timestamp without time zone | not null
last_seen | timestamp without time zone | not null
type | ip_history_type | not null
Indexes:
"users_history_ip_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
Foreign-key constraints:
"users_history_ip_userid_fkey" FOREIGN KEY (userid) REFERENCES
users_main(id) ON DELETE CASCADE
----------------------------------
I'm trying to insert information into the geoip_info column. Here's
some of the information that I'm trying to insert, and the errors:
'Portugal, 09, Vila Real De Santo António'
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xf36e696f
'Norway, 08, Ålesund'
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xc56c
'Portugal, 04, Vila Nova De Famalicão'
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe36f2c
The locale on the server is "C" and the encoding is "UTF8". I thought
the UTF8 encoding would allow characters like this? Why is it
disallowing it?
Note, the GeoIP info is generated automatically by a module, so I am
unable to determine exactly what characters will be returned.
Thanks for the help.
