Re: [HACKERS] Strange issue with CREATE OPERATOR CLASS
Josh Berkus j...@agliodbs.com writes: I've been working on some scripts (for pgfoundry) which help in cleaning up databases which have TSearch and other contrib modules installed to schema public. However, I ran into this odd issue: ERROR: btree operators must return boolean Is that the actual error message? The closest string I can find in 8.3 or HEAD is index operators must return boolean. What appears to be happening there is that PG isn't finding the tsearch operators or is selecting the wrong operators. It seems possible that you could get an error like that as a result of something creating a shell operator and not filling it in afterwards, but if so I'd blame the earlier something; the worst that can be laid at CREATE OPERATOR CLASS's door is giving a less helpful error message than it could. We really need to see a complete example of how to reproduce the problem before speculating about appropriate fixes. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Oh! Sorry, this is 8.2.12. I can't reproduce it in 8.3 for obvious reasons, since there the TSearch stuff comes built-in.

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out the minimum test case; the one I have now contains proprietary client data, and *just* using tsearch2.sql doesn't produce the problem. --Josh -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Oh, OK. It's the same case though. Look for operator definitions that specify a commutator or negator operator that never gets provided. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
