If you want to encode in UTF8, you need to change teamplate0 in UTF8 first
sudo -u postgres psql update pg_database set datallowconn = TRUE where datname = 'template0'; \c template0 update pg_database set datistemplate = FALSE where datname = 'template1'; drop database template1; create database template1 with template = template0 encoding = 'UTF8'; update pg_database set datistemplate = TRUE where datname = 'template1'; \c template1 update pg_database set datallowconn = FALSE where datname = 'template0';
sudo -u postgres psql -c "create database newid with encoding='utf8' template=template0;"
CREATE DATABASE db_name OWNER = role_name TEMPLATE = template ENCODING = encoding LC_COLLATE = collate LC_CTYPE = ctype TABLESPACE = tablespace_name CONNECTION LIMIT = max_concurrent_connection WITH ENCODING='UTF8'
Once you create user successfully, you can try to check by
psql -h localhost -U <your_username>
