Subject: [pgadmin-support] Pgadmin III not honoring DATESTYLEPostgreSQL version: 8.1.2
Operating system: Linux
Description: Pgadmin III not honoring DATESTYLE
Details:
By default in postgresql.conf the DATESTYLE is set to "SQL,European" and it works OK except for Pgadmin III.
When you ask for "view data" in Pgadmin III a date field shows yyyy-mm-dd instead of dd/mm/yyyy
Please tell me how to fix this
pgAdmin works with DATESTYLE=ISO to ensure that dates cannot be
misinterpreted when using servers with different settings. Supporting differing
datestyles on different servers is not easy to do and can lead to user
confusion. As an administration tool we prefer pgAdmin to remain
unambiguous rather than make it easy to unintentionally enter invalid data, or
misinterpret query results.
