doing,though I’m not familiar with whether you can mock the server and stub out a resultset response to the query that
wouldcontain multiple records. The error mode is not returning exactly one record. Testing for that at runtime is
simple,but what is a good response if that unlikely event happens?

spaceconsuming. Probably worth doing for adhoc testing but less so in a unit test suite.

Hello David, Andrew,
We certainly have a lot of migrations and "vacuum full" over the years for example on our many db instances. And we
havelots of entities in the db as per the logs I shared (thousands including columns, tables, views etc...). Is there
somethingI could help with given what I have on my local dev environment? Maybe a limited schema-only backup that would
allowto replicate the issue somewhere else or are you good? I can certainly look at a debug version of the driver (if I
canget access to the JAR somewhere) and could test it. I am not able to make a build from github based on what I saw
forhttps://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/pull/2245, which looks like the right fix as per the thread.
Thank you,
Laurent.
