	Turkish character sorting on PostgreSQL by Ismail YENIGUL-2 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hello, I am using PostgreSQL 8.2.5 on FreeBSD 6.2. But I have a problem with sorting Turkish characters. They are listed after "z" character. I initialized the PostgreSQL with the following values: initdb -E UNICODE --locale=tr_TR.UTF-8 and initdb -E LATIN5 --locale tr_TR.ISO8859-9 But the result is like the following: SELECT * from test order by name; "id";"name" 1;"aa" 3;"dd" 6;"mm" 5;"zz" 2;"çç" 4;"ş" There is no problem on Linux with the same data. How can I solve this problem? Thanks. -- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + http://www.enderunix.org/ismail http://www.endersys.com.tr + + EnderUNIX SDT @ Tr Endersys Consultancy Ltd. + + ismail ~ enderunix.org ismail.yenigul ~ endersys.com.tr + + Volunteer, Core Team Member Project Manager + +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ _______________________________________________ freebsd-database@... mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-database To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-database-unsubscribe@..."

Try creating a small C program that sorts your strings using strcoll() to verify this - if the small C program works, it's a PostgreSQL problem. signature.asc (201 bytes) Download Attachment
	Re[2]: Turkish character sorting on PostgreSQL by Ismail YENIGUL-2 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hello Ivan, Here is the test result. It seems that the problem is on FreeBSD (6.2) . Because ö and ş are before then z in Turkish alphabet. # cat a.c #include <locale.h> int main() { setlocale(LC_COLLATE, "tr_TR.ISO8859-9"); printf("%d\n",strcoll("ö", "z")); printf("%d\n",strcoll("ü", "z")); } ftpfreebsd[~]# ./a 124 130 ftpfreebsd[~]# By the way, LC_COLLATE is link to the ../la_LN.US-ASCII/LC_COLLATE in /usr/share/locale/tr_TR.ISO8859-9 directory. Does this mean that LC_COLLATE is missing for tr_TR.ISO8859-9 ? # ls -al /usr/share/locale/tr_TR.ISO8859-9/ total 14 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jul 9 15:32 . drwxr-xr-x 157 root wheel 4096 Dec 4 2006 .. lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 28 Jul 9 15:32 LC_COLLATE -> ../la_LN.US-ASCII/LC_COLLATE lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 26 Jul 9 15:32 LC_CTYPE -> ../la_LN.US-ASCII/LC_CTYPE -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 18 Jul 9 15:32 LC_MESSAGES -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 34 Jul 9 15:32 LC_MONETARY -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 8 Jul 9 15:32 LC_NUMERIC -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 352 Jul 9 15:32 LC_TIME and there is no file spesicific to the tr_TR.ISO8859-9 in /usr/src/share/colldef/ # ls /usr/src/share/colldef/ Makefile el_GR.ISO8859-7.src la_LN.ISO8859-15.src map.ISO8859-1 ru_RU.CP1251.src README en_DK.example la_LN.ISO8859-2.src map.ISO8859-13 ru_RU.CP866.src be_BY.CP1131.src es_ES.ISO8859-1.src la_LN.ISO8859-4.src map.ISO8859-15 ru_RU.ISO8859-5.src be_BY.CP1251.src es_ES.ISO8859-15.src la_LN.US-ASCII.src map.ISO8859-2 ru_RU.KOI8-R.src be_BY.ISO8859-5.src et_EE.ISO8859-15.src lt_LT.ISO8859-13.src map.ISO8859-4 sl_SI.ISO8859-2.src bg_BG.CP1251.src hi_IN.ISCII-DEV.src lt_LT.ISO8859-4.src map.ISO8859-5 sr_YU.ISO8859-5.src ca_ES.ISO8859-1.src hy_AM.ARMSCII-8.src map.ARMSCII-8 map.ISO8859-7 sv_SE.ISO8859-1.src ca_ES.ISO8859-15.src is_IS.ISO8859-1.src map.CP1131 map.KOI8-R sv_SE.ISO8859-15.src cs_CZ.ISO8859-2.src is_IS.ISO8859-15.src map.CP1251 map.KOI8-U uk_UA.CP1251.src de_DE.ISO8859-1.src kk_KZ.PT154.src map.CP866 map.PT154 uk_UA.ISO8859-5.src de_DE.ISO8859-15.src la_LN.ISO8859-1.src map.ISCII-DEV pl_PL.ISO8859-2.src uk_UA.KOI8-U.src Thursday, December 20, 2007, 12:44:34 PM, you wrote: > Ismail YENIGUL wrote: >> Hello, >> >> I am using PostgreSQL 8.2.5 on FreeBSD 6.2.

	Re[4]: Turkish character sorting on PostgreSQL by Ismail YENIGUL-2 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hello, I think, I managed to give full Turkish locale support by modifying /usr/src/share/colldef/la_LN.ISO8859-1.src file. I made some tests, It is working fine. I will submit a new PR. Also please find the attached patch for the people who want to test it.
