Bug#546246: bacula-director-pgsql: missing -T template0 in creation of database
retitle 546246 bacula-director-pgsql: missing -T template0 in creation of database with PostgreSQL 8.4 tag 546246 upstream, confirmed thanks Michael, thank you for reporting. I am not comfortable with patching things this way, as I am afraid it could break things for users of previous versions. Upstream seems to believe it is the case too. A discussion has been initiated with the PostgreSQL developers on http://marc.info/?l=bacula-devel&m=125975994721892&w=2 I'll try to see if some kind of version detection is possible for a more general solution. Until then this will at least be documented. Best Regards, -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#546246: bacula-director-pgsql: missing -T template0 in creation of database
Package: bacula-director-pgsql Version: 3.0.2-3 Severity: normal My postgresql 8.4 database was created with all tables having UTF8 as encoding, probably because I use an UTF8-locale. Now bacula needs to use SQL_ASCII instead of UTF8 and this is correctly specified in the postinst script. The problem is that postgresql cannot create the database with a different encoding (SQL_ASCII vs. UTF8) as long as you do not specify -T template0: postgres $ createdb -O bacula -E SQL_ASCII bacula createdb: database creation failed: ERROR: new encoding (SQL_ASCII) is incompatible with the encoding of the template database (UTF8) HINT: Use the same encoding as in the template database, or use template0 as template. postgres $ createdb -O bacula -E SQL_ASCII -T template0 bacula postgres $ psql postgres=# \l List of databases Name| Owner | Encoding | Collation |Ctype| Access privileges ---+--+---+-+-+--- bacula| bacula | SQL_ASCII | de_DE.UTF-8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | postgres | postgres | UTF8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | template0 | postgres | UTF8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres template1 | postgres | UTF8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | de_DE.UTF-8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres (4 rows) So, please add this flag to the creation.
