             Summary: DBStorage unable to work with PostgreSQL
                 Key: PIG-4561
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-4561
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: piggybank
    Affects Versions: 0.13.0, 0.14.0
            Reporter: Neeleshkumar Mannur
            Priority: Critical


Pig assumes bytearray as the default data type. When using the DBStorage class 
with MySQL with no data type specified, it works correctly for UTF8 strings. We 
pass encoding parameters in the connection string to DBStorage. So, DBStorage 
honours those parameters and values are stored correctly into the tables.

When using DBStorage with PostgreSQL, the same scenario stores UTF8 data in 
octal format in the tables. Hindi characters or rather all UTF8 characters are 
stored as "\347......." Also, none of the PostgreSQL connection parameters are 
honoured.
