Обсуждение: Re: [SQL] Question regarding multibyte.
Hi,
I am new to postgres. I asked a question regarding multibyte display. I
got only one response.
Hence, I am re-iterating the question again to a larger audience.
We are using 8.2 release of postgres. Recently we converted our database to
multibyte on our dev machine. we want to test the following.
1) How will I insert multibyte from our php? Do we need to use any
special encoding?
2) I am using psql command line to get the data into a flat file and push
to our data warehouse
We use IBM redbrick warehouse.
3) If I have multibyte, I know the output from the psql will scatter to
many lines. How can we avoid that. What is the sql command ? I need 1
record per row to supply to our warehouse.
Can somebody help me?
Regards
skarthi

I responded to your original message in pgsql-admin; maybe you haven't seen the response yet: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-admin/2007-02/msg00043.php If the comments aren't helpful then please provide more information about the difficulties you're having. A minimal but complete example that illustrates the problem might be useful. -- Michael Fuhr

But these aren't the only factors when sending data collected via php to postgres. There's also your webserver and the user's browser to account for, both of which handle data according to the defaults of the browser. My solution to this problem was to standardize on UTF-8 and then use mbstring and iconv to convert everything to UTF-8. It's still not perfect as there are still characters that aren't converted properly. But by and large, it's extremely rare considering the amount of data we're dealing with. We also chose to use PHP to pull the data out of db and write to file. By doing this, we were able to make sure the data was encoded correctly. Charley
Hi Gurus,

It looks like your psql has linked to an obsolete version of libpq.so,
though it's not real clear why the thing would have started at all if
that were the situation ...

Hi,
I am new to postgres. I need some kind of template script or advise on
how to analyse the indexes. In our database, we do delete, insert, update
tons of rows.
