![]() ![]() I'd appreciate a copy of it to play with. With this method, an SQL query is written to create a table (with no records), by defining column names and data types. ![]() Refuses to export from pgAdmin (using the Import/Export tool)? If so, Try out the workaround I thought of earlier to see if it helps (Iĭoubt it'll be a panacea, but it may help in some cases).īy any chance do you have a test case you can share with me that Use ASCII data in SQL_ASCII databases - the behaviour is undefined,Īnd as a result may either not render properly or may crash or errorĪnyhoo, I expect to have a little time after dinner shortly so I'll That's why the PostgreSQL docs say to only Javascript (and by extension pgAdmin) may barf on data encoded in a Results in the query tool), the issue arises because Python and/or the ones where pgAdmin sees the data, such as Well psql is failing to deal with it *in this case*, as that's what isĭoing the \copy in the import/export tool. > I hope I have made the situation a little bit clearer. The issue seems to be that pgAdmin4 is assuming UTF8 data and crashing/failing/throwing errors when it encounters invalid UTF8 characters. This is a supported configuration for postgreSQL. If you don't want to create a table, you can't use a database to store your data. The only way to store data in a relational database is to use a table. You can only import into Postgres - but not without a table. So to reiterate, I am using valid non-UTF8 characters in a SQL_ASCII database. You don't import 'into pgAdmin', because pgAdmin is only a frontend to a Postgres database server. In fact the most common character that pgAdmin4 crashes on is the Windows smart quote. Net applications have NO problem dealing with it. This is why psql has NO problem dealing with it. I am storing valid non-UTF8 data in a SQL_ASCII encoded postgreSQL database (please re-read what I had previously written). ![]() Thanks for continuing this discussion, but I think you misunderstand the situation. ![]()
