Hi all,
Today i got one problem what i have saved more that one procedures in
a folder. After i have concatenate those files into single file through
shell script. After am trying to run that single file in my server, it was
showing syntax error. If i remove first character it's run. That first
character is invisible, I have checked that *ascii* value, it is *65279*.
How can i overcome this problem. I want to run my single file without this
error.
By below command i am concatenating individual scripting files to single.
*:> cat *.* > <file_name>.sql*
select ascii('');
select chr(65279);
select length('');
Plz. give me suggestions, it's blocker to my work.
Thanking you,

That's not an ASCII-value, ASCII has 8 bits at most.
What you've got there is a UTF-16 Byte Order Mark: 65279 is 0xfeff
(one of the well-known constants).
I'd suggest you get your editor configured to write files without
BOM. Maybe there's a workaround via locale settings - but I have
no machine with an UTF-16 locale available. Another approach is using
recode on your files before concatenating.
This question isn't really for pgsql-hackers - I'm redirecting to -general.
Regards,
Christoph

Thanks, I'll look into it.
