Hi Java-Linux Development Team, I am using jre117_v3 on my RedHat 6.0 with the database Postgresql6.5.3. I am trying to fill out a textFieldControl(JBCL2.0) which is set to a column in one of my database views by the help of another textFieldControl(JBCL2.0) which is also set to a column in the same database view. When I enter the source field, the Postgres sends me a message of 'Conversion between UNICODE and KOI8 is not supported'...I know that the current version of Postgresql does not support UNICODE client encoding. I searched the miling lists in Postgresql and found nothing(nearly nothing...). I compiled my database with the --with-mb=KOI8 option(as I told from the Postgresql mailing lists), initialized the db with the same option and created the db with the same option and finally SET the CLIENT_ENCODING TO KOI8. And STILL GIVES ME THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE! I am sure I am missing sth but I cannot find what it is. Sth like a local option in the db side or sth like encoding option in the Java side, I cannot find it out... (the Java exception is: 'borland.jbcl.dataset.ValidationException: ...column cannot be longer than .... characters'; although I have defined this(these) columns larger than the values appear in the exception string. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
