[EMAIL PROTECTED] is ISO-8859-15, if that helps. I changed the locale to

Nevertheless "show lc_ctype" says [EMAIL PROTECTED], even after a postgresql
restart. How can I change that?
initdb is the only way to change the database's LC_CTYPE or LC_COLLATE :-(
That's ok for now, I can do so [type type type].
Done. Fine, now my script runs perfectly. Thanks to all who answered.
In the initdb man pages I saw that I can set locale variables, so
there's no need to switch my entire environment to a locale that I don't
want. Is it a necessary restriction that the db encoding must match the
lc_ctype? I can remember a case when I had two dbs with different
encodings and this might happen again. Or is it a problem that I'm using
a localized version of postgresql that uses special characters in the
messages?
