---------------------
Architecture (example: Intel Pentium) :
Intel Pentium
Operating System (example: Linux 2.4.18) :Linux
2.6.5-1.358 (Fedora core 2)
PostgreSQL version (example: PostgreSQL-7.4.3):
PostgreSQL-7.4.3
Compiler used (example: gcc 2.95.2) : I
used rpm version
Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------
when I set lc_monetary to fa_IR.UTF8 and try to insert
a value for field whose type is money I got
following error:
invalid input syntax for type money: "10"
I study the cash.c and found that the problem exists
for any monetary that has not precision.
fa_IR, tr_TR and ...
Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please
try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
create a table with a money type:
CREATE TABLE test ( m money);
and then set lc_monetary to fa_IR.UTF8
now try to insert a value
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('10');
you will get the error message.
now if you set lc_monetary to en_UR.UTF8 (or any
monetary that has precision) you can run the
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('10');
without any error.
If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the
solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a dirty method to fix the problem, replace the
line 159 in backend/utils/adt/cash.c
if (isdigit((unsigned char) *s) && dec < fpoint)
with
if (isdigit((unsigned char) *s) && (dec < fpoint ||
fpoint == 0))
because the prolem only exists for monetrat with
fpoint == 0;
apply patch:
cp cash.diff to src/backend/utils/adt/ directory
and then patch -p0 < cash.c
now recompile the postgreSQL, the problem will be
fixed.
