My only thought is that some of the regex behavior has changed, but I can't identify anything. The regexes used here are very standard. Unfortunately, in testing the bugger, it accidentally worked. I find this most disturbing. However, I was pleasantly surprised that it failed at least one more time before working properly. Chalk the cause of this bug up as high-energy particles striking the memory chip in just the right place at just the right time. The only other thing I think might affect it is the fact that I was simultaneously compiling PostgreSQL 7.3.4, reading email, and downloading stuff. Perhaps there is a strange race condition in the make process. Of course, the recent power outage in the area (that didn't affect us) might've been a cause as well. I apologize that I couldn't ease your pain, Tom. I know how it feels to see the same bug pop up occasionally, only to be solved by hitting the "Redo" key. - -- Jonathan Gardner [EMAIL PROTECTED] Live Free, Use Linux! -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/1XQJWgwF3QvpWNwRAi0FAKCkPV+yn0y3kNT3AoHy5TX9a0v6NACaA7qI PlIJfFguW4LNr+4RL535rIM= =wWkP -END PGP SIGNATURE- ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org

Gen_fmgrtab.sh has worked on all our supported platforms for a long time, and I'm disinclined to assume that it's suddenly broken ... especially on what's presumably a modern platform. I'm having a real problem with the idea that Fedora incorporates a broken awk or sed. I was able to rebuild from source rpm on a Fedora machine without any problem, so I don't think it's a case of wholesale breakage. It's not my normal development machine, but I'll try compiling from source [...tries...] Yup, I got a clean build from source with the following configure line: ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql-7.4 \ --with-pgport=55434 \ --with-perl \ --with-tcl \ --with-tclconfig=/usr/lib \ --without-tk \ --with-python \ --enable-nls \ --enable-debug \ --enable-cassert \ --enable-depend \ --with-openssl \ --with-pam \ --enable-integer-datetimes \ --with-krb5=/usr/kerberos \ --with-includes=/usr/include/et/ The only adjustment from my RH9 box was the last line.

The only idea I can think of is that you were almost out of /tmp space and the missing data got lost because of lack of space to put it. I'm not sure whether awk/sed/etc would detect write failures on stdout. regards, tom lane ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[BUGS] Unintended shutdown in postgres 7.4
Let me just say that I love all the work that has been done for postgres 7.4. The information_schema is totally cool! We've been seeing a problem where the database server will shutdown unexpectedly. This generally happens when we are in the middle of importing a large dump in .sql format from a mysql database (we're currently converting). Interesting things in the log file are: LOG: could not send data to client: Broken pipe LOG: unexpected EOF on client connection LOG: received fast shutdown request LOG: aborting any active transactions FATAL: terminating connection due to administrator command However, nobody issued a "fast shutdown request". It just seems like the DB died and stopped responding. Has anybody else seen this before? Do you need me to gather any more data on the problem?

[BUGS] decode function
Hi I don't know if it is really a bug or a missuse of postgresql but when I issue the following request select decode(encode('µ'::bytea, 'escape'), 'escape'); , the result is \346, not 'µ'.

Thanks, Bruce. I have a 7.3.4 install in my current path when running the regression tests. I will try rebuilding and retesting with a modified path.

That's the same thing. bytea stores bytes, not characters, so we expect that you are primarily interested in the byte value. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
