Summary: Get a 'ERROR:  nodeRead: Bad type 0'

System Configuration
--------------------
  Operating System   : Linux 2.2.7 (glibc 2.0/redhat 5.2 w/ patches)

  PostgreSQL version : 6.5

  Compiler used      : gcc 2.7.2.3

Hardware:
---------
Linux bucephalus.dynip.com 2.2.7 #3 Sun Jun 20 09:26:47 CEST 1999 i686 unknown

Versions of other tools:
------------------------
flex 2.5.4, bison 1.25

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem Description:
--------------------
After creating my database, I get the following error:
ERROR:  nodeRead: Bad type 0

After that, I can still query the database, but I can't
do anything else with it anymore (dump, \d).

This is very reproducible and doesn't happen with
6.3.2.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Test Case:
----------
I have a couple of insert statements that cause this problem
every time. I can send a transcript, if you like.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution:
---------

You will have to. We don't have enough details to make any guesses...

I also ran the same postgres version and insert script on a FreeBSD 3.2
system. No problems. I guess I'll have to investigate further. I'll get
back to you about this.
