My cluster was now using UTF-8:
Please note however, that individual database encoding can be set at the time that the database is created, so you don't have to re-initdb to do that. I.e.: create database mydb with encoding 'UTF8'; create database yourdb with encoding 'SQLASCII'; \l mydb | smarlowe | UTF8 yourdb | smarlowe | SQL_ASCII The only thing you should need to reinitdb for is locale. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
