[mapserver-users] More upgrade problems

[DeDuikertjes]

Daniel,

Thank you for your answer.
"iconv -l" tells me UTF-8 is supported.

My data comes from postgis.
If I look in the postgis database it tells me it's encoded in UTF8.

If I make a database with:
CREATE DATABASE "ppa_test_database"
  WITH OWNER = xxxxx
       ENCODING = 'UTF-8'
       CONNECTION LIMIT = -1;

postgis tells me the database ppa_test_database is encoded in UTF8 and 
not UTF-8.

So apparently postgis wants to state UTF8 and iconv wants to hear UTF-8.

Is there any way around this?
