If I look at the error message and have to guess, I'd say that you have
created a type or domain "length", which leads to confusion with the
"length(text)" function:
CREATE DOMAIN length AS text;
SELECT length('something') < 42;
ERROR: operator does not exist: length < integer
LINE 1: SELECT length('something') < 42;
^
HINT: No operator matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.
Workaround: don't use "length" as the name of a custom object.
But a query run by pgAdmin should still not fail.
You should write to the pgadmin mailing list and tell them what object
"length" you created and how to reproduce the error.
