Hi,
First off I'm running:
links=# select version() ;
version
---------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.0.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc egcs-2.91.66
(1 row)
Now, if I have a table with an index, I'm not able to do some selects on
it. To reproduce:
links=# create table foo ( a char(25) );
CREATE
links=# create index foodx on foo (a);
CREATE
links=# insert into foo values ('Test/Test');
INSERT 29689 1
links=# select * from foo;
a
---------------------------
Test/Test
(1 row)
links=# select * from foo where a like 'Test/%'
links-# ;
a
---
(0 rows)
# Strange result, why 0 rows, the select failed.
links=# select * from foo where a like 'Test%';
a
---------------------------
Test/Test
(1 row)
# This one's fine.
links=# select * from foo where a like 'Test/T%';
a
---------------------------
Test/Test
(1 row)
# And so is this one.
It seems the /% causes a problem. If I drop the index, the selects work
fine. Is this a bug, am I missing something? If you need any other
system info, please let me know. I did an RPM install on a pretty plain
Redhat 6.2 system.
Please reply to alex@gossamer-threads.com with any ideas.
Thanks!
Alex
