    <p>I am attempting to set up postgresql on a Vagrant box using Chef solo and am running into some problems. I need the default postgres encoding/locale to be UTF8. By default, the locale of the precise64 Ubuntu box is set to "C" so postgres is using LATIN1 for encoding. This is what I've done so far:</p> <p>I have a chef recipe that sets the locale by doing the following:</p> <pre><code>template "/etc/profile.d/lang.sh" do source "lang.sh.erb" mode "0644" end execute "locale-gen" do command "locale-gen en_US.UTF-8" end execute "dpkg-reconfigure-locales" do command "dpkg-reconfigure locales" end </code></pre> <p>where lang.sh.erb looks like:</p> <pre><code>export LANGUAGE="en_US.UTF-8" export LANG="en_US.UTF-8" export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" </code></pre> <p>This sets up the locale correctly, but unfortunately it doesn't modify the current environment. So I have another recipe that just sets the ENV before including postgresql</p> <pre><code>ENV["LANGUAGE"] = ENV["LANG"] = ENV["LC_ALL"] = "en_US.UTF-8" include_recipe "postgresql::server" </code></pre> <p>This has no effect. The locale is set up correctly:</p> <pre><code>postgres@precise64:~$ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 </code></pre> <p>But postgres used the "C" locale when it was installed.</p> <pre><code>postgres@precise64:~$ psql -l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding | Collate | Ctype | Access privileges -----------+----------+----------+---------+-------+----------------------- postgres | postgres | LATIN1 | en_US | en_US | template0 | postgres | LATIN1 | en_US | en_US | =c/postgres + | | | | | postgres=CTc/postgres template1 | postgres | LATIN1 | en_US | en_US | =c/postgres + | | | | | postgres=CTc/postgres (3 rows) </code></pre> <p>For attribution's sake, I got all this from <a href="http://www.softr.li/blog/2012/05/22/chef-recipe-to-install-a-postgresql-server-on-a-machine-configured-with-en_us-locales" rel="nofollow">http://www.softr.li/blog/2012/05/22/chef-recipe-to-install-a-postgresql-server-on-a-machine-configured-with-en_us-locales</a>.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
