One thing I've not seen an answer to: does Postgres run acceptably on other people's Solaris boxes? If this bug is preventing running on Solaris at all, I'd say fix it ... Solaris is a major platform. If it only affects users of one particular Solaris patch version, then we do a big warning and save it for 7.4.1. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
