Thread: Possible bug in update?

Hi,

My name is Markus Kräutner, I am using PostgreSQL to build a distributed
biological database as part of my diploma thesis.

I hope this is the right forum for my question.

At the end of several bulk inserts the following statements get executed:

begin
update pom_c2996785 set p3=3268837857008 where p3=34804837857008
update pom_c2996795 set p3=3268837857008 where p3=34804837857008
update pom_c2996804 set p3=3268837857008 where p3=34804837857008
commit

When I check the database the last update has not been executed. Manually
executing it in psql does work.
I verified this with 7.3.2, 7.3.4 and 7.4beta2 and have no clue what to do
next. As you can see in the attached logfile it seems the command is
correctly sent to the postmaster, but just gets not executed.
I don't really understand the logfile, so I am lost...

Please help me :)

Thank you in advance, Markus

not overly clear from the debug statements, but are all the above lines
also ended with a semi-colon?

... ergo, the bug is not in the backend, but in whatever non-psql client
software you are using.  Since you haven't mentioned what that is,
further speculation is difficult ...

This just doesn't look right.

line 364               case COPY_NEW_FE:                     while (datasize > 0 && !fe_eof)            ....

line 408        datasize =- avail;


shouldn't it be datasize -= avail ?

AFAIR this is a really outdated K&R style of -=  . Compilers *should* 
recognize this (and will throw an ambiguity error if there's no space 
after =- ), but it's better to use the 'newer' style.

Good idea ;-).  I'll look into it, but I'm not at all surprised to hear
of bugs in the hash-index code.  It's not gotten near as much usage as
btree.

Well, it get's worse, I think after bruce ran pgindent it was turned
into

datasize = -avail;

Ugh, you're right.

Dave didn't quote it accurately.  It was actually

diff -r1.209 copy.c
435c435
<                               datasize = -avail;
---
>                               datasize -= avail;

which is just plain wrong ... the net effect being that COPY IN BINARY
would fail to cope with fields crossing message packet boundaries.

I managed to construct a sample script which also fails in psql. It seems to 
be the hash index. If I leave out the "create index" line or use btree 
instead everything works fine.
I will use btree now :)

Thank you for your help.
