Hi,

I think I have a similar issue... A pgAdmin III user contacted me with the
question why they can't see the data in Russian and how to to solve the
problem. I queried them for more information. I think their data must be
encoded in some other encoding (e.g. KOI8-R) and when it gets to the
client side, it's not converted.




This is correctly diagnosed, non-ascii data in a SQL_ASCII encoded database will not be shown because the server doesn't know how to encode it in Unicode.

This is fixed for HEAD and BRANCH.



No. Server encoding as below.


This is not suitable for non-ascii chars, because the upper bit will be chopped off (ascii->utf8), effectively destroying the string, or converted to a bogus char (xx), effectively destroying the string.


Regards,
Andreas
