Troubleshooting Migration Issues

This section provides some guidance if you encounter issues when migrating PostgreSQL data.

Data Encoding Do Not Match

Issue Solution
Running the migration script generates an error message similar to the following:
encodings for database "postgres" do not match: old "SQL_ASCII", new "UTF8"
Reinitialize the target PostgreSQL 11 data directory to match the source PostgreSQL 9.5 database encoding.
