I downloaded the postgresql-7.0.3.tar.gz source and compiled the JDBC
driver using make jdbc2, installed the new JAR file and it works
now. There may be a problem in the RPM or something. Sorry that I can not
be more specific. Thank you.
Previously, I wrote:
------------------------
Version: Postgresql 7.0.3-2 (RPM for RedHat6.2)
JDBC Version: 7.0.3-2 (RPM for RedHat6.2)
Java Version: Sun build 1.3.0
Calls to ResultSet.getTimestamp(...) throw an exception and report the
following error:
"Bad Timestamp Format at 19 in 2000-12-18 12:31:15.77-05"
To reproduce:
1. Create a table using the TIMESTAMP SQL type.
2. Insert a row with a timestamp (using psql)
3. Use JDBC getTimestamp()
For use, this bug is severe since it prevents us from using the timestamps
in our EJB entity beans.
