hi all,
just to ask u all one thing regarding encryption/decryption.

i am migrating my database from mysql to pgSQL using a php script.
in mysql there is a table 'users' where a field 'password' is there of type
varchar(30),
and is encrypted using AES algorithm, and when i check all the records in
mysql it looks like:-

mysql> select * from USERS;
+----+----------+------------------+-------------------+------------+-------+
| id | name | password | password_modified | created_on | admin
|
+----+----------+------------------+-------------------+------------+-------+
| 1 | Admin | \uffff\uffff\u6fde\uffff\uffff

9 rows in set (0.00 sec)

(all these "ufff\ufff\ufff<\ufff\U\ufff" the password field is seems as
special characters like triangles and rectangles, u can say like chinese
characters)

now, when i am running my script, then only one record, where name='check2'
is copied (because no password is there in this case), but not any other
record is displayed.........

plz help me in this case and do tell what should i do to copy all the
records.......
(any suggestion either at the php/mysql/postgresql level)
do help me..............plzzzzzzzzz..............!
