Hello guys,

Using pgaccess 0.98.8 with PostgreSQL 7.3 on Linux RH 7.2, I get :

ERROR: Client encoding UNICODE is not supported

when trying to connect to a database (no error with psql).

Searching on the web, a very few posts like mine were replied to recompile
PostgreSQL with --enable-multibyte, but this option has disappeared with

7.3

release (enabled by default).

Any idea ?

Thanks for any help.

Christian.

I eventually got it to work, both by downgrading to 7.2.3 release with which
the --enable-multibyte option is available, and recompiling tcl/tk from
sources (i first had gotten the activetcl-stuff RPM). I can't tell if the
former or the latter (or even both together) action(s) solved this issue.
