Re: Is it a bug ?

Hi Pascal,

If this is a bug in 7.3, and it's not in later versions, I doubt the
developers will be in any hurry to fix it, I don't know - maybe someone
knows a quick patch fix, or if it was fixed in a later version of the 7.3
series - as that would only be a minor upgrade (e.g. 7.3.2 to 7.3.8 or
something), and it wouldn't cause you much downtime.

Hi Andy

Actually no.

I just tried it on Postgres 8.0.4 and there is no problem

But is there no solution for the 7.3.0 version?

Because we haven't upgraded our servers yet.

Thx for your quick reply

Pascal

Hi Pascal,

7.3 is now quite out-dated - have you tried the latest release, 8.1.3, to
see if the problem is still present?

Hi,

I just noticed a bug in PostgreSQL 7.3.2

I don't know if it exists in other versions

If I have a UNICODE database and I make the following query

SELECT * FROM table where code like 'abcz%';

Or

SELECT * FROM table where code like 'abcz_';

(or anything that ends with z% or z_)

It gives the following error :

ERROR: Invalid UNICODE character sequence found (0xc000)

Other queries like

SELECT * FROM table where code ilike 'abcz%';

SELECT * FROM table where code like '%abcz%';

Or the same query but in an SQL_ASCII database don't give the same error

Is it a bug in Postgres ????

I'd appreciate an explanation

Thx

Pascal
