Hi to all:

I've the bacula catalog under Postgresql and the database was created
with UTF8 encoding. Now, trying to protect one 'old' client ( REDHAT 3 )
I get errors from backup job - better said, the errors are raised in the
database - claiming for some characters not valid fro UTF8 encoding,
example

"
Fatal error: sql_create.c:845 sql_create.c:845 query SELECT FilenameId
FROM Filename WHERE Name='Nenúfares.jpg' failed:
"

IIUC, here I have three possible ways taking in mind that the
environment to protect could include UTF8 clients, ISO-8859-1, Windows
machines -By now I don't know default enconding, etc...


1.- Recreate catalog using SQL_ASCII ( the environment to protect could
include UTF8 clients, ISO-8859-1, Windows machines -By now I don't know
default enconding, etc... )

2.- May be, forcing character set in the bacula-fd client processes I
get at least a 'buggy chars' but storable in the database ( ? ) ( This
can be accomplished in Oracle at the risk of lose this characters if you
export/import data )

3.- Touch database config to force character set from UTF8 to SQL_ASCII,
but I don't know how Postgresql stores characters and then, I've no
knowledge about implications of this movement.



Based in your experience, and if you have get this issue before, what
should be the correct way? If you know more ways info is wellcome, of
course.


Best Regards


D.
