Re: [SL] HELP DATABASE CREATION PROBLEM WITH MULTIBYTE ECONCODING ASCII ON OPEN SUSE 11

[Paul T. <pt...@wa...>]

Point 1: First install SQL-Ledger, then create the db via admin.pl, using
any encoding you fancy, in your case ascii, THEN quit sql-ledger and do the

psql my_database_name < sql_backup_2.x.x.sql

bit.Not sure about the exact command there, has been a while. It is in the
manual however.

For what it;s worth, I use opensuse 11 myself and had no problems restoring
last time round, a few months ago iirc. Just use standard tetex via yast,
the tetex-extra you mention is not traceble via rpmfind, you sure you use
that?

Point 2:  Although I strongly doubt it has anything to do with the problem,
on SuSe 11 you can install rpm made for Suse 10.3 without a problem, just
add the 10.3 repository. Or you can use the factory (bleeding edge) beta
11.1 repository. Also you could try to install a general package, normally
they are called packet_xyz_0.1.1.noarch.rpm. Just download and instaal with
yast or zypper. Last resort: get a sourrce package and do the slightly more
complex commandline routine of extracting to a subdir and then configure,
make and make install. I yet have to find something I can not install under
Suse, but it os sometimes a bit more then point and click. .
