Re: [PATCH] BUG FIX: inconsistent page found in BRIN_REGULAR_PAGE

Evelyn,

I ran the query that runs when you click on Check Invoices  that returns the invTotal and TotDetailAmt and here's what came up. As you will see, the invTotal amounts from your list don't match the production data and most of the amounts in TotDetailAmt don't match production data. Where did your list come from? Is this an old list from the other day?

I have turned on the invTotal field in both invoice forms so you can compare the Total Invoice amount that is calculated from the line items with the invTotal amount that is saved to the database. This will allow you to see what is being saved at the time of creating the invoice.

Is there any special reason to read WAL records until the last inserted

Hmm, no, there's no good reason to do it that way.

It seems that in some rare situations on slower machines this test can fail.
If any background process inserts a WAL record before lsn('insert')
and this record isn't flushed before
pg_get_wal_records_info('$start_lsn', '$end_lsn'),
pg_get_wal_records_info('$start_lsn', '$end_lsn') ends with ERROR
"cannot accept future end LSN" as it works only if record with end LSN
is inserted.

Hmm.  I've never seen that, but it sounds plausible.

I attached two patches with two ways of fixing this minor issue.

-my $end_lsn = $whiskey->lsn('insert');
+my $end_lsn = $whiskey->lsn('flush');

Thank you, I used this one.

Regards
