 hi all
 
i am facing a problem and here it is:
 
i install the following (postgres) rpms as root
postgresql-libs-8.0.0-1PGDG.i686.rpm
postgresql-8.0.0-1PGDG.i686.rpm
and
postgresql-server-8.0.0-1PGDG.i686.rpm
 
now i try to create a database
 
/usr/bin/createdb temp
 
when i connect to it
it shows: server_encoding : LATIN9
and client_encoding: LATIN9
 
from where did it get these values
i want them to be UNICODE.
 
please help
( i know there is a workaround to this problem - 
/usr/bin/createdb -E UNICODE temp )
 
but this is happening at a particular machine . On other machines it is UNICODE.
 
thanks
regards
surabhi
