I am having some trouble pulling some data out from the database. I have tried against both 7.4.5, 8.0b4 and 8.0b5 and get the same result. I have used both the v308 and CVS HEAD of the JDBC driver. When I SELECT from a certain table, I see this JDBC exception: "Invalid character data was found.

possible that this is an issue with beta5 in conjunction with the JDBC driver and encoding? I didn't see a CHANGELOG note that would make me suspicious but I'm not sure I would know if it I saw it. Hunter > From: Peter Eisentraut <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Wed, 24 Nov 20

I have a CSV file with 400,000 lines of email mailing list information that I need to migrate to a new PostgreSQL database. Each line has all the info I need except a PK (I usually use an int4 column for a PK). If the file were smaller I would probably just use Excel to pop in a PK and then just

We use PostgresSQL 7.4 with JBoss without any trouble at all. I believe the datasource samples that come with JBoss include a PG example. We've found PostgreSQL to be an EXCELLENT companion to our Java server apps (JBoss based J2EE, straight servlet, and Apple's WebObjects). Hunter > From: Razv
