This is a documentation error --- SJIS is certainly not a valid server encoding (it's not 8-bit-safe). Will fix --- thanks for pointing it out. > createdb: database creation failed: ERROR: SJIS is not a valid > encoding name I wonder if it would be worth changing the code so that you get a complaint saying the encoding is known but not allowed on the server side. It hasn't come up before, so maybe it's not worth the trouble ... but this message seems a bit confusing. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
