Hello all,
I somehow managed to stuff up the encoding (or locale or something) in a
transfer of a database from one machine to another (also different linux
distribution).
The problem is this: the origional database was created and populated
with data using whatever default locale/encoding was installed on the
first machine.
Words would appear correctly, as in: Hoë
After dumping the database and restoring on a different one, the word
incorrectly appears as: Hoë
Before I do any more damage or waste time, I'd appreciate any ideas or
pointers on correctly performing the initdb -E<encoding>
--locale=<locale>... (or any other ideas on resolving this issue) , before
I try and restore the data again.
Thanks
henk
