here's a program that duplicates it on my computer...


#include <libpq-fe.h>
#include <libpq/libpq-fs.h>

main()
{
        PGconn *connection;
        PGresult *result;
        Oid oid;
        int handle;
        char buf[1024];

        memset(buf,-1,sizeof(buf));

        connection=PQsetdb(NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);
        if(connection==NULL) { exit(-1); }
        PQtrace(connection,stderr);
        oid=lo_creat(connection,INV_WRITE);
fprintf(stderr,"lo_creat: %s\n",PQerrorMessage(connection));
        handle=lo_open(connection,oid,INV_WRITE);
fprintf(stderr,"lo_open: %s\n",PQerrorMessage(connection));
        lo_write(connection,handle,buf,sizeof(buf));
fprintf(stderr,"lo_write: %s\n",PQerrorMessage(connection));
        lo_write(connection,handle,buf,sizeof(buf));
fprintf(stderr,"lo_write: %s\n",PQerrorMessage(connection));
        lo_close(connection,handle);
fprintf(stderr,"lo_close: %s\n",PQerrorMessage(connection));
        result=PQexec(connection,"select aaa from test");
        if(result==NULL || PQresultStatus(result)!=PGRES_TUPLES_OK) {
fprintf(stderr,"fail: %s\n",PQerrorMessage(connection)); }
        PQfinish(connection);
}
