It would be an odd web page which listed all the values which are
not valid as character encodings in any particular encoding scheme.

Can You help me?

Questions like this belong on the pgsql-general list; this one is

You are trying to read a file as text, which is character based.
You are using UTF8 and the file contains data which is not a valid
UTF8 code point.

Thank you, but this is a not help for me.
Why PG gives me not valid character and do you mean read *.log file as
binary? Do you know how to solve?
