Hello,
I want to set the datestyle = 'ISO, European' for all my databases. I
put that configuration into postgresql.conf file, but I didn't succeed.
After rebooting all dates are like that:
YYYY-MM-DD
I'd like to have
DD-MM-YYYY for my timestamp field.
I have the latest version of pgsql and perl.
Hereafter is an extract of my postgresql.conf file.
Thanks and best regards,
Filippo
# - Locale and Formatting -
datestyle = 'ISO, European'
#timezone = unknown # actually, defaults to TZ
# environment setting
#australian_timezones = off
#extra_float_digits = 0 # min -15, max 2
#client_encoding = sql_ascii # actually, defaults to database
# encoding
# These settings are initialized by initdb -- they might be changed
lc_messages = 'C' # locale for system error message
# strings
lc_monetary = 'C' # locale for monetary formatting
lc_numeric = 'C' # locale for number formatting
lc_time = 'C' # locale for time formatting

The closest display format to that is 'SQL, DMY':
regression=# set datestyle = 'sql, dmy';
SET
regression=# select current_date;
date
------------
03/06/2006
(1 row)
See the discussion of datestyle values in
