We can set Unicode=true in connection string when we are using dotConnectFotPostgreSQL.
Is there any way to achieve the same thing if we use NpgSQL provider to insert UTF8 data into PostgreSQL?
As a part of requirement i am using both dotConnectFotPostgreSQl and NpgSQL. Unicode keywork is not supporting by Npgsql and hence my code is failing when i open the connection with NpgSQL.
Criteria: Insert german special characters into PostgreSQL with NpgSQL
ex: Ä ä /ɛː/
Ö ö /øː/
I am trying to achieve the insertion of above letters into PostgreSQL by using NpgSQL. Unfortunately it is not working.
Database: PostgreSQL 11
npgsql: version 6.0
dotnet framework: 4.6.1

In Postgres psqlodbc driver using special characters in connection string password like
sqlstringconnect('DRIVER={PostgreSQL Unicode};PWD=pü')
or in url encoded form
sqlstringconnect('DRIVER={PostgreSQL Unicode};PWD=p%C3%BC')
throws password error.
According to

How to use special characters in passwords ?
Client application is Microsoft Visual Foxpro 9
Using Postgres 13.1 with 32-bit psqlodbc driver 13.00.0000 in Windows 10 non-unicode application where system locale is Windows-1257 (Baltic Windows)
I have created a Flexible Server (Azure database for postgreSQL), I am using pgadmin to connect to this database (Encoding UTF8), I have a table named skills, and using pgadmin shows the spanish words correctly.
SHOW SERVER_ENCODING;
UTF8
SHOW CLIENT_ENCODING;
SQL_ASCII
The problem is when I connect entity framework core to this database, shows accented spanish words incorrectly, for example:
Publicación (Correct)
Publicaci\xf3n (Incorrect)
When I send data from Web API to database it is inserted this way
Publicación
There is an option in Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server is Server Parameters,
Inside there is a parameter:
client_encoding was SQL_ASCII and I changed to UTF8
then my pgadmin shows accented spanish words correctly, that was the solution
I'm using NodeJS to get some data from a PostgreSQL database and render it on the web. When I make a query on SQL Shell(psql) everything looks fine but when I console.log that same data from NodeJS, all the special characters are replaced with gibberish.
The encoding for this database is
- Encoding: UTF8
- Collation: French_France.1252
- Ctype: French_France.1252
I tried to set Client_Encoding to UTF8 but when I reconnect to the database I find out that it is still not set.
Also I get this warning each time I connect to the database (Just in case it may cause smth)
WARNING: Console code page (850) differs from Windows code page (1252)
8-bit characters might not work correctly. See psql reference
page "Notes for Windows users" for details.
My OS is Windows 8 and PostgreSQL version is 10.x.
After a long search I have found a solution that I want to share now.
Change your ODBC DSN connection string to include this: ConnSettings=SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'UTF8';
I have Chinese data in my db and I need to display it in my Java web app. However I am getting ??? as output.
Database Used: SQL Server 2008 R2 (nvarchar datatype is used in order to support Unicode data and db is created with default collation name i.e. SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and there is no problem while storing the data in db).
Development Environment: Window 7
Treegrid is used to display data.
I have already:
1. set charset and pageEncoding to UTF-8 in my HTML, jsp and Java
pages.
2. Updated my jdbc connection with useUnicode=true;characterEncoding=UTF-8;.
3. Configured Tomcat’s server.xml connector to use UTF-8 (URIEncoding="UTF-8").
I have once set collation_name to Latin1_General_CI_AI still it's not working.
Latin1_General_CI_AI --> There's part of your problem. Latin1 has nothing to do with Unicode. Getting "???" means there's an encoding problem somewhere in your toolchain, where your UTF-8 data gets scrambled into another encoding.
I am trying to insert '€' char in Db2 Database. My Db2 database is in zOS. (v.8.0) and my Db2 client version is 9.1 FP5. I am trying this using ODBC Connection via ADODB in Visual Basic or C# code.
But junk char is getting inserted. '€' symbol is not inserting.
Is there any option to set the CodePage 1252 at connection level?
Used DISABLEUNICODE = '1' to SELECT / INSERT '€' symbols from VB
