Hi there, I've managed to get postgresql working with UTF8 and KOI8. Here is some mini-howto: http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/utf8.html Regards, Oleg _____________________________________________________________ Oleg Bartunov, sci.researcher, hostmaster of AstroNet, Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow University (Russia) Internet: oleg@sai.msu.su, http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/ phone: +007(095)939-16-83, +007(095)939-23-83

Markus,
I have used ru_RU.utf8 which recognized by system, at least that name
was generated by localedef program.

No idea :-) I just tested sorting and didn't even tried upper,lower. I suspect the problem is real. At least, perl (5.6.1) handles uc,lc function using special pragma 'use utf8'. Let me know if you get any success.

Marcus, I suspect lower,upper will not works with Unicode. Read thread http://fts.postgresql.org/db/msg.html?mid=1070198 Tatsuo is the right person to ask.
