How to fix invalid multibyte character for locale error - Mailing list pgsql-general

I created Postgres 8 database in Windows XP  using

CREATE DATABASE mydb ENCODING='UNICODE';

and upsized data to it.


The query

SELECT name FROM customer ORDER BY UPPER(name);

returns error

ERROR:  invalid multibyte character for locale
HINT:  The server's LC_CTYPE locale is probably incompatible with the
database encoding.

How I can get customer list in case-insensitive alphabetical order ?

The query

SELECT name FROM customer

runs OK
