bug report: tuple is too big - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

Sir:

     I was testing my php web content manager yesterday when an error
suddenly popped out as I was trying to save my article to the database. The
error was "PostgreSQL query failed: Error: Tuple is too big: size 8812". My
table schema for the news article:

     neid           serial
     netitle        varchar(120)
     nebody         text

I am using PostgreSQL version 6.5 (included in Red Hat Linux 6.2). The
article I was trying to insert into the database was fairly large. Is there
an official patch I can apply to overcome this limit. Or is the new version
of PostgreSQL capable of handling larger inputs.

     Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
