Cheers everyone.
Therefore :
- At runtime level :
test=> show DATESTYLE;
test=> SET DATESTYLE TO 'ISO';
- At boot up (/etc/rc.d/init.d/postgres) :
Add :
export PGDATESTYLE=ISO
just before executing postmaster ....
- At database level :
$ postgres <options> <database>
- option -e = European
see $ man postgres
- At user level :
Add in to shell startup (Eg .bash_profile) :
export PGDATESTYLE=ISO
Phew!
