Re: [GENERAL] Problem of capital case-insensitive letter with accent
Yes. I'm sure that we are using LATIN1 on both. ServerA works, but ServerB not.
We changed the local of ServerA(as it is a testing server) the same as ServerB,
but ServerA still works. Quite strange.

when database uses different encoding, than is specified in cluster's
initialization, then lower, upper doesn't work.

FWIW, I think we've got 8.3 fixed so that it will reject combinations of locale and encoding that don't work. It's a bit tricky because of the fact that locale processing isn't too well standardized :-( regards, tom lane ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

check locales. Functions lower and upper works only with correct locales.
show all;
lc_collate | cs_CZ.UTF-8
...
cs_CZ is for czech and UTF-8 for utf8 encoding

Could you give me a hand? Thank you very much.
Are you sure you're using LATIN1 on both?
js=# \l
List of databases
Name| Owner | Encoding
---+--+--
js| cww | UTF8
test | cww | LATIN1
[ ...snip... ]
js=# SELECT lower('ÉÈ');
lower
---
éè
(1 row)
js=# \c test
You are now connected to database "test".
test=# SELECT lower('ÉÈ');
lower
---
ÉÈ
(1 row)
It seems the UTF8 database performs lower() correctly, but the LATIN1
database does not.

[GENERAL] Problem of capital case-insensitive letter with accent
Hi, there
In our database, some customers' names contain French accent like
É,é,È,è. In one server, case-insensitive search works for capital letters. For
example,
SELECT lower('ÉÈ') could return éè . But the other server cannot.
It is very strange, as the two server use the same Fedora linux, and
the same
version of Postgres(8.2.4). We all use LATIN1 encoding.
Could you give me a hand? Thank you very much.
