But I ran into a slightly different question. I'm struggling with UTF-8 encoding and was wondering if: 1) there is any real difference in postgresql between setting up en_US.UTF-8 and POSIX as far as being able to read/write anything? I'm thinking the answer is no. 2) when rails creates this database, is there some way I can add options to this yaml file to specify the encoding when it's created? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
