Hi Hackers,

PFA updated patch. The sqleditor change is sent separately and removed from current patch as suggested.

The test cases were running fine when the module was specified using --pkg but were failing in complete run. Fixed that.

I did a quick test by creating a SQL_ASCII database containing a simple table:

CREATE TABLE sql_ascii (id serial primary key, data text);

And then populated it with data:

/Library/PostgreSQL/9.4/bin/psql -d sql_ascii -U postgres -c "INSERT INTO sql_acsii (data) VALUES ('[Windows-1252]   Euro: \x80   Double dagger: \x87');"

/Library/PostgreSQL/9.4/bin/psql -d sql_ascii -U postgres -c "INSERT INTO sql_ascii (data) VALUES ('[Latin-1]   Yen: \xa5   Half: \xbd');"

/Library/PostgreSQL/9.4/bin/psql -d sql_ascii -U postgres -c "INSERT INTO sql_ascii (data) VALUES ('[Japanese]   Ship: \xe8\x88\xb9');"

/Library/PostgreSQL/9.4/bin/psql -d sql_ascii -U postgres -c "INSERT INTO sql_ascii (data) VALUES ('[Invalid UTF-8]  Blob: \xf4\xa5\xa3\xa5');"

I then right-clicked the table in the treeview, and selected the option to view all rows, and immediately saw an error:

2018-06-05 12:23:27,319: SQL pgadmin: Execute (async) for server #1 - CONN:1187535 (Query-id: 8522474):

SELECT * FROM public.sql_ascii

ORDER BY id ASC 

2018-06-05 12:23:27,320: ERROR pgadmin: Failed to execute query (execute_async) for the server #1 - CONN:1187535(Query-id: 8522474):

Error Message:ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x80

SQL state: 22021

Running "SELECT * FROM sql_ascii" in the query tool resulted in the same error, however, if I ran "SET client_encoding = 'SQL_ASCII';" first, I do see results.

I have confirmed that I've restarted the server after applying the patch.

What am I missing? Why don't we just set the client_encoding to SQL_ASCII if it's a SQL_ASCII database?

 

It is by default same as the server encoding. But, the following existing code in  web/pgadmin/utils/driver/psycopg2/connection.py makes the client_encoding as UNICODE for every connection. I am not sure it should be removed.

        status = _execute(cur, "SET DateStyle=ISO;"

                               "SET client_min_messages=notice;"

                               "SET bytea_output=escape;"

                               "SET client_encoding='UNICODE';")

It was probably before you joined, but I have said a number of times that pgAdmin 3 handled this differently and that maybe we should do it the same way here. See https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgadmin3.git;a=blob;f=pgadmin/db/pgConn.cpp, in the pgConn::Initialize() function.

Either way, your patch isn't working for me.

 

Note that this testing was on Python 2.7.10 on MacOS.

 

Kindly review.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello Aditya,

There is no change related to notifications in this patch. 

The below code is minor fix related to connection status of sql editor. Can you please share the code snippet if it is not the below.

-        # Check for the asynchronous notifies statements.

-        conn.check_notifies(True)

-        notifies = conn.get_notifies()

+        if status is not None:

+            # Check for the asynchronous notifies statements.

+            conn.check_notifies(True)

+            notifies = conn.get_notifies()

This is a minor fix, but is it related to querying SQL_ASCII database?

No its not. It is something I found when I was working on SQL_ASCII related changes.

Well then, will send a separate patch for it.

Thanks

Victoria && Joao
