Обсуждение: 7.1->7.2 data import timestamp problems
I'm importing the data from my 7.1.2 database into 7.2 and I've found a few problems. The first one was: ERROR: Bad timestamp external representation 'current_timestamp' I fixed that problem by removing the quotes within the input data. The next problem seems slightly harder to fix. $ psql fp2migration < fp2migration.sql.timestamp.library [snip] ERROR: copy: line 2537, Bad timestamp external representation 'current' lost synchronization with server, resetting connection ^C Any clues as to what will fix this problem? -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples

Quoth the release notes:
* The date/time value 'current' is no longer available. You will need to
rewrite your applications.

How are we to upgrade if we can't import our data from previous versions? -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples

My plans for 7.2 are now on hold while I try to find a way to get 7.2 to accept the data that has been exported from 7.1. -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples

You need to adjust your application first to do without the 'current' value, then fix your data, then upgrade. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

Yes, I found 9 such values in a timestamp field. I corrected the data, exported, and imported into 7.2. All went well[1]. Now my concern is how the value 'current' found its way into a timestamp field.... I'm looking at the application. thank you. [1] - I did have to manually modify the pg_dump output to remove the quotes from around current_timestamp (as mentioned elsewhere). -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples

I believe we've seen this from trying to load a 7.1 plpgsql.so
into 7.2.

I have seen other reports of this. Did anyone realized 'current' could be stored in the database? I remember discussion about it but I didn't realize anyone actually used it. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

Tom! Well done. Thank you. That was the problem.[1] After correcting
that, I started to get:
ERROR: fmgr_info: function 944463: cache lookup failed
I tried to the just reload the stored procedures, but had to reload the
entire db to fix that one.
Much appreciated.
[1] - the change I made: this
CREATE FUNCTION "plpgsql_call_handler" () RETURNS opaque AS
'/usr/local/lib/plpgsql.so', 'plpgsql_call_handler' LANGUAGE 'C';
became
CREATE FUNCTION "plpgsql_call_handler" () RETURNS opaque AS
'/usr/local/lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so', 'plpgsql_call_handler'
LANGUAGE 'C';
which is the default location under the latest FreeBSD port.

Actually, under 7.2 the preferred definition is just
CREATE FUNCTION "plpgsql_call_handler" () RETURNS opaque AS
'plpgsql', 'plpgsql_call_handler' LANGUAGE 'C';
It's no longer necessary to supply a full path to the shlib, and
in fact it's best to let the shlib loader fill in the default path.
That should prevent future occurrences of this sort of problem.
Almost certainly, the reason you got burnt to begin with was that
the dumped definition of plpgsql_call_handler contained the full
path to the *old* installation's plpgsql.so --- am I not right?
We got smart about that at last, and now there is a search path
for shlibs in the loader code. But it won't help you unless you
use it.

Peter said he committed it yesterday...

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION (new in 7.2) would do the trick.
