Hi Hector,

 -E UNICODE is the option to set the encoding for a new database.
See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/app-createdb.html for more details.
The command would be
createdb -U [databaseuser] -E UNICODE [databasename]
e.g.
createdb -U dspace -E UNICODE dspace
if both the dbuser and the dbname are dspace

If your db cluster got initialized with LATIN1 encoding (either explicitly by using -e or indirctly via the locales) a newly created db inherits the encoding unless otherwise specified, see:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/app-initdb.html

Hope that helps

Claudia

I think the problem is related with the codification. If I create an item with special characters like "Título 1", when I run this:

dsp...@dspace:~$ /home/dspace/dspace/bin/index-update
Creating browse index
Exception in thread "main" org.dspace.browse.BrowseException: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: carácter 0xcc81 de codificación «UTF8» no tiene equivalente en «LATIN1»
<lines suppressed>

without special characters I have no problem.

The problem is that I couldn't create the database if I don't use LATIN1 codification. How can I create the database with the UNICODE codification?

Thanks.

Hello,

I have installed dspace 1.5.2 in a debian linux stable version.

The installation uses postgres as database and is a new installation. I have created a testing community and a testing collection without problems. But when I have created a new item, although it was created without problems I can't see it in the collection (http://dspace:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/2) or when I try to find it using the search engine (http://dspace:8080/jspui/simple-search?query=&submit=Ir+). Nevertheless I can access to the item data using the URI associated to it (http://dspace:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/3).

It seems that there is something missing between the collection and the item. Can anybody help me?

Thanks.
