The collation of database is not set correctly?

Abdullah Roman June 18, 2021

I have followed the steps from the below link but no luck! https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/database-setup-for-postgresql-173244522.html

below is the my create database script and the database created successfully:

CREATE DATABASE "CONF-DB" WITH OWNER = "CONF_USER" ENCODING 'UTF8' LC_COLLATE = 'English_United States.1252' LC_CTYPE = 'English_United States.1252' TEMPLATE template0;

but if i use following script to create database into postgres it fails:

CREATE DATABASE "CONF-DB" WITH OWNER = "CONF_USER" ENCODING 'UTF8' LC_COLLATE = 'UTF8' LC_CTYPE = 'UTF8' TEMPLATE template0;
