I am importing a file from some colleagues that is throwing an error that I have never encountered before (nor it seems, has Google). What is interesting is that this file was an update sent to me whose only supposed difference is that it is a POINT shapefile instead of a MULTIPOLYGON. The MULTIPOLYGON version worked fine, of course I have no way of knowing what else has REALLY changed with this dataset. Any help would be appreciated. The error occurs with only a subset of the records, and occurs upon cat'ing the file to psql like so:
cat sql/observed_vdgif_xy.sql | psql aquatic_bio -U robertwb ERROR: byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x96 HINT: This error can also happen if the byte sequence does not match the encoding expected by the server, which is controlled by "client_encoding". Regards, r.b.
