Hi,
I just downloaded the PostgreSQL 8.0.0b5 and the pg80b1.308.jdbc3.jar. I
compiled, installed, and created a database from scratch (i.e. initdb
and createdb) using default's for everything. When I try to run a Java
program, I get the following exception:
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Backend start-up failed: FATAL:
invalid value for parameter "client_encoding": "UNICODE".

AFAIK this used to work. What has changed?
