Hi, It fact, I wrote on newsgroup yesterday about a problem that seemed to come from "libqp.dll", but it wasn't. It looks like something going wrong at the server-side (version 7.3.4-2 on Cygwin 1.5.1) when sending the result of a query. When I call a function from 'psql' (or 'libpq'), the client returns "SELECT " (instead of a number) and here is the client trace: To backend> Q To backend> SELECT news_stockIDtoMDS(10) From backend> C From backend> "SELECT" From backend> Z From backend> Z When I write a SELECT statement under 'psql' (either in '/usr/bin" or compiled as 'psql.exe' with VC++) , the console displays "SELECT ", and here is the trace at the server side: LOG: plan: { SEQSCAN :startup_cost 0.00 :total_cost 20.00 :rows 1000 :width 346 :qptargetlist ({ TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 1 :restype 23 :restypmod -1 :resname _id :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 1 :vartype 23 :vartypmod -1 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 1}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 2 :restype 1043 :restypmod 36 :resname _mds_code :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 2 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 36 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 2}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 3 :restype 1043 :restypmod 36 :resname _ric :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 3 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 36 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 3}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 4 :restype 1043 :restypmod 36 :resname _isin :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 4 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 36 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 4}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 5 :restype 1043 :restypmod 36 :resname _bloomberg :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 5 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 36 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 5}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 6 :restype 1043 :restypmod 260 :resname _name :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 6 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 260 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 6}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 7 :restype 1043 :restypmod 68 :resname _sector :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 7 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 68 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 7}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 8 :restype 1043 :restypmod 6 :resname _country :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 8 :vartype 1043 :vartypmod 6 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 8}} { TARGETENTRY :resdom { RESDOM :resno 9 :restype 23 :restypmod -1 :resname _has_parent :reskey 0 :reskeyop 0 :ressortgroupref 0 :resjunk false } :expr { VAR :varno 1 :varattno 9 :vartype 23 :vartypmod -1 :varlevelsup 0 :varnoold 1 :varoattno 9}}) :qpqual <> :lefttree <> :righttree <> :extprm () :locprm () :initplan <> :nprm 0 :scanrelid 1 } SEQSCAN :c=0.00..20.00 :r=1000 :w=346 ( stock_mapping ) The server has found 346 records, so why doesn't it work properly? Before passing to 'ipc-daemon2.exe', it was working well. Note: I installed Cygwin + PostgreSQL without having logged as an administrator, updating an older version that was installed as administrator. But the server encounters no problem to start.

Try upgrading Cygwin to 1.5.5-1. I just ran a make installcheck under Cygwin 1.5.5-1 without any problems.

Or is it a misuse of 'postmaster'? Sorry, but I'm not qualified to address the above.
