Hi Ertan,

Locale names are different on Windows and Linux. Please try using following command to create new database.
CREATE DATABASE collationtest ENCODING 'UTF8' LC_COLLATE 'Turkish_Turkey.1254' LC_CTYPE = 'Turkish_Turkey.1254' TEMPLATE template0;

Note on document:
On Windows, however, UTF-8 encoding can be used with any locale.

Best regards.

Hello,

I am quite new to the community and PostgreSQL. My search in the acrhieves
did not show any hints.

I just installed PostgreSQL 9.6.1 64bit on Windows 10 64bit OS. Used
EnterpriseDB setup.

I wanted to create a database using LC_COLLATE "tr_TR.UTF-8". My pgsql
command and error I receive is as follows:

postgres=# CREATE DATABASE collationtest ENCODING 'UTF-8' LC_COLLATE
'tr_TR.UTF-8' TEMPLATE template0;
ERROR: invalid locale name: "tr_TR.UTF-8"
postgres=#

Just for a test, I tried 'tr_TR.UTF8', 'tr_TR' and got same result for all.
I am open to any advises and appreciate any help.

Thanks & regards,
Ertan Küçükoğlu
