[postgis-users] converting to postgis

[farouk azzouhri]

Hello,
I converted an Access database (contains two fields X and Y) in a .shp file
it's ok, but when I wanted to convert the .shp into a postgis database (
using the shp2pgsql-gui.exe ) it gives me the following message:

Unable to convert field name to UTF-8 (iconv reports "Illegal byte sequence"
). Current encoding is "UTF-8". Try "latin1 " (Western European), One Of The
gold values ​​at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/multibyte.html Described.
Shapefile import failed.

how I'm going to do ??
