The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      6395
Logged by:          Franco Ricci
Email address:      franco.ricci@phys.uniroma1.it
PostgreSQL version: 9.1.2
Operating system:   FreeBSD 9
Description:=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20

Query at bottom returns:
"ERROR:  invalid XPath expression
DETAIL:  Invalid expression

********** Error **********

ERROR: invalid XPath expression
SQL state: XX000
Detail: Invalid expression"

The same query on PostgreSQL 9.x works fine!


------
SELECT
xpath('/llrp:RO_ACCESS_REPORT/llrp:TagReportData/llrp:*[contains(name(),\"E=
PC\")]/llrp:EPC/text()',


'<llrp:RO_ACCESS_REPORT
xmlns:llrp=3D"http://www.llrp.org/ltk/schema/core/encoding/xml/1.0"

I think you mean 9.0.

"EPC\")]/llrp:EPC/text()',

Does it work if you drop the '\'?

PostgreSQL 9.1 defaults to standard_conforming_strings=3Don.  See the
release notes for details.
