RE: [JDBC] Re: [JDBC] Re: [JDBC] é converted in Ã(c)

I think that I’m correct with the client encoding as the “SHOW
client_encoding” return UTF8 no ?

The JDBC driver only knows one encoding. Are you using it to retrieve the
data as well ?

It is behaving as though the client is using a character encoding
other than UTF8 -- some sort of 8-bit encoding, probably. You must
set client_encoding to match.
