Hi.
I have a problem with PostgreSQL and UTF-8 on my Mac OS X Powerbook.
- System is Mac OS X Client 10.4.3, PostgreSQL 8.1beta3
- initdb was called with -E UTF-8 --locale=de_DE.UTF-8
I have successfully build a LC_COLLATE file for ISO8859-15, and
ordering works there if I do the initdb with ISO8859-1 but I want to
use UTF-8 for some reasons.
I have linked the LC_COLLATE for de_DE.UTF-8 to the same LC_COLLATE
file that works fine with ISO8859-1.
"show all;" shows that the encoding ist UTF-8 now, the LC_... are
"de_DE.UTF-8". Okay, this is fine.
But it doesn't work. The LC_COLLATE file works, if I set encoding and
locale to ISO... but not, if I set the values to be UTF-8 (don't know
how often I have called initdb in the last days ...).
It seems to me, that the locale "de_DE.UTF-8" just isn't working at
all (at least for ordering results) in the combination PG -- Mac OS X.
Some hints what I can try to find out more?
