Dear Tom,
I have just been talking to Hans-Juergen Schoening from the hackers-list on the telephone. I found out, that I was really using postgres 7.2-1.72, (I took this as 7.2.1 :(( ) - so I updated the server, and the webserver that's connecting to the database to the latest current rpm-release. Unfortunately I still receive the same messages... The Webserver is using latest mod_perl and Pg.pm for connecting. Could this be a problem? Thanks again for your help!
