Hi,

I installed postgresql from a rpm files:
* postgresql-7.4.3-2PGDG.i686.rpm
* postgresql-jdbc-7.4.3-2PGDG.i686.rpm
* postgresql-libs-7.4.3-2PGDG.i686.rpm
* postgresql-server-7.4.3-2PGDG.i686.rpm

So in my installation there are no map file but there are a lot of so's in /usr/lib/pgsql.
I can observe that there is no utf8_and_iso8859_8.so file. How can I got/compile this file ?

The second solution, that I prefer but that failed was to work server/client side only in utf8. The DB was UNICODE, the 'show client_encoding' returned unicode and the charset in the jsp was utf-8. Any idea !?
