I have a perl script to copy the contents to the db .
The db is set to default encoding LATIN1
While doing a copy to the db i set the client encoding to UTF8 using
$dbh->{pg_enable_utf8}=1; $dbh->do("SET client_encoding TO 'UTF8'") or die "could not set the cl +ient_encoding to UTF8 for $db_host $!";
However while doing the copy to the db i get the errors like
DBD::Pg::db pg_endcopy failed: ERROR: character 0xd7a4 of encoding "U +TF8" has no equivalent in "LATIN1" DBD::Pg::db pg_endcopy failed: ERROR: character 0xe4bea1 of encoding +"UTF8" has no equivalent in "LATIN1"
and the culprit keywords look like this
ืครืกรืง
ืครืกรืง
ืครืกรืง
รยฉรยงรรืครยจ
รยฉรยงรรืครยจ
รยฉรยงรรืฉร
รยฉรยงรรืฉร
รยฉรยงรรย รยช รร
รยฉรยงรรย ื รยช
รยฉรยงรรย ื รยช

My question is how can i grep for these kind of keywords. I have checked the same keywords copy to a db set to SQL_ASCII and it works fine.
Can you please suggest me how i can grep for those characters
Thanks heaps
