Hi all.
First off, PostgreSQL 7.2; pg_ctl script has a bug I'm unable to locate. When I try to run it, I get the following:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster: invalid argument --
Somehow, "--" gets appended to the command line. No big deal, I can start postmaster manually.
My complaint is about one other "feature" - pg_dump. It doesn't dump database encoding. I have several databases on the
systemand they use different encodings ("UNICODE" and "LATIN2"). "pg_dump" forgets to add the encoding atribute for the
database,which is problematic.
Earlier versions didn't even have a man page stating how to create a database from SQL with encoding. In 7.2 at least
thatis in the docs"
CREATE DATABASE "www" WITH ENCODING = "UNICODE";
Any chance of pg_dump being corrected to dump encoding, as well?
Nix.
