Did you try to explicitly give the type for the literal?
e.g.  ''::varchar

Subject: [SQL] query configuration for validate empty quote to zero

We just changed the postgresql server and got some problem with sql command
in our old server we can exexute this query:
 
SELECT * FROM product WHERE prdtnumber = ''
 
field prdtnumber data type is integer and the empty quote somehow can be assumed into 0 (zero)
Now,  if I use the same query it return an error:
invalid input syntax for integer: ""
 
Anyone know what's the problem??
 
Thanks
