I'm running PostgreSQL 8.3 with pl/python 8.3. I am getting a different date/time format when executing the below examples. The results are the same whether I use os.popen or os.system. In plpython, I run: import os cmd = 'ls -al /var/log/messages > /var/tmp/log' x = os.popen(cmd) for aline in x.readlines(): plpy.notice('aline = %s', aline)
and the contents of /var/tmp/log are "-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 495523 Oct 30 11:52 /var/log/messages
When, within Python, I run: >>> cmd = 'ls -al /var/log/messages > /var/tmp/log' >>> x = os.popen(cmd) >>> for aline in x.readlines(): ... print aline
the contents of /var/tmp/log are "-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 23591 2009-10-30 13:03 /var/log/messages
How, using plpython, can I get the output date/time in the same format as when executing from within python itself?
