My project works on Window 2000, but not on Linux. The non-Western
language, Chinese in this case, doesn't stored or/and retrieved properly in
Linux. That differenc between the two configurations is only where
PostgreSQL is setting: Window 2000 with Chinese locales, Redhat Linux 8.0.
Does someone have a similar configuration and is able to have non-Western
language stored and retrieved in PostgreSQL 7.2?

Thanks for your input.

Hi Vernon,

I do not know about the Chinese, but I am using pg 7.3.1 + RH 7.3 and cyrillic
and do not have
problems with storing data.

My linux (server) setting is as default (US).
By db creating, I define it as unicode and it is working for me.

You will have problems only with sorting. Is is very slow for unicode.

regards,
ivan.

Hi, Ivan,

Thanks for your input.

Is the "EUC_JP" for the output of the command "select
pg_encoding_to_char(1)"? And what are the string encoding for user input
data and data retrieved from DB? What is your programming language?
