Thread: BUG? server closed the connection unexpectedly 7.4 on Windows (cygwin)

The following query yields:

PublishWorks=> select count(*) from merchandise.ds_item(6);
 count
-------
   815
(1 row)

Yet the following produces:

PublishWorks=> select count(item.*) from merchandise.ds_item(6) item;
server closed the connection unexpectedly
        This probably means the server terminated abnormally
        before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.

As does:

PublishWorks=> select count(item.*) from merchandise.ds_item(6) as item;
server closed the connection unexpectedly
        This probably means the server terminated abnormally
        before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.

I can't duplicate it here; sure the problem isn't in your function?

regression=# create function z() returns setof tenk1 as
regression-# 'select * from tenk1' language sql;
CREATE FUNCTION
regression=# select count(*) from z();
 count
-------
 10000
(1 row)

regression=# select count(a.*) from z() a;
 count
-------
 10000
(1 row)
