Another DST related problem in pgsql 8.1.5 ...

drop table dst;
create table dst (tz1 timestamp with time zone, tz2 timestamp with time
zone, tzage interval);
insert into dst ( select ('2005-01-02'::date+(days*7))::timestamptz as t1
from generate_series(0,150) as days );
update dst set tz2 = tz1::timestamp + '12 hours';
update dst set tzage = age( tz2 at time zone 'GMT', tz1 at time zone 'GMT' );
select * from dst where tzage <> '12 hrs';

My query produces the correct results for 2005 and 2006; but in 2007 DST
dates are changing in North America and my query seems to still be using
2006 rules for 2007 data.  What can I do about this?  Query should report
2007-03-18 and 2007-11-11.

Perhaps your installation of PostgreSQL has outdated zone files, or a wrong time zone set? Also, for the US DST begins on March 11 and ends on November 4.

Check the commands below to see what your results are.

OK, I got the dates wrong in my msg; it should be Mar11 and Nov4 (Canada
follows USA); but pgsql still isn't reporting the correct dates on my system:

You certain this is PG 8.1?  Every release of 8.1.x has shipped with
timezone data files that included the 2007 rule change.  In the 8.0
series, 8.0.4 and up should have that update.  PG 7.x releases are
dependent on the operating system's timezone knowledge.

FWIW, my copy of 8.1.5 produces

regression=# select * from dst where tzage <> '12 hrs';

You certain this is PG 8.1?  Every release of 8.1.x has shipped with
timezone data files that included the 2007 rule change.  In the 8.0
series, 8.0.4 and up should have that update.  PG 7.x releases are
dependent on the operating system's timezone knowledge.

FWIW, my copy of 8.1.5 produces

regression=# select * from dst where tzage <> '12 hrs';
          tz1           |          tz2           |  tzage

where

regression=# show timezone;
     TimeZone
------------------
America/New_York

(Another possibility I guess is you have the wrong timezone setting?)

The zone files for Canada/Eastern on version 8.1.5 are out of date. A simple work around would be to use US/Eastern time zone.

Oh, there's your problem: as of 8.1.5's version of the zoneinfo files,
it wasn't clear what Canada was going to do.  Looking at our CVS history
it seems the zoneinfo people only did something about it in mid-2006:

+# From Paul Eggert (2006-06-27):
+# For now, assume all of DST-observing Canada will fall into line with the
+# new US DST rules,

This is in CVS for 8.1.6 but not released yet.  What I'd suggest is
grabbing the share/timezone/* files out of an 8.2.0 release, which
does have the update.  You might be able to get away with just copying
your /usr/share/zoneinfo tree into Postgres' share/timezone directory,
but be prepared to undo that because it could break things entirely:
there's more than one zoneinfo file format out there.

Also note you need to restart the postmaster after updating zoneinfo,
I don't think there's any provision for noticing updates automatically.

Frank,
Of course you could always get brave and recompile the zone files :). I outlined a procedure on my web site:

http://www.postgresqlforums.com/wiki/

If your interested in braving those waters. I did perform it against 8.1.5 and the zone files worked fine with your test case.

Perhaps this is a good excuse to give 8.2 a whirl? :)

I still haven't found the zone files on my system.  The file I dumped in a
previous message was from OS ( At the time, I thought it was the same thing).

I think I'll do the "US/Eastern" work around for now.  I notice that I must
reload tables for this work correctly (or did I miss something)?  I'm still
testing upgrade from 7.3.5 to 8.1.5, so reoad is not a problem this time.

I used to install from source about 5 years ago; but now I've been spoiled
by binary packages from OpenBSD.  They have 8.1.5, but not yet 8.2
available yet.

I would imagine if you are using OpenBSD then they are probably in /usr/local/share/pgsql/timezone, that seems to be the norm for non-core BSD code.

I think I'll do the "US/Eastern" work around for now. I notice that I must
reload tables for this work correctly (or did I miss something)? I'm still
testing upgrade from 7.3.5 to 8.1.5, so reoad is not a problem this time.

I would imagine if your data is already stored with the "old" time zone, then it would need to be reloaded. If the backend converts everything to GMT then it would have done the conversion incorrectly due to the outdate time zone maps, or if the backend stores the time zone with the row then since the time zone maps have not been updated then it would still be incorrect.

I used to install from source about 5 years ago; but now I've been spoiled
by binary packages from OpenBSD. They have 8.1.5, but not yet 8.2
available yet.

Yep, rpm has spoiled me for years on Linux. I remember the mid 90's and building Linux 1.2.13 and 2.0 kernels, enabling and disabling features, rebooting, total nightmare. Best two software solutions are loadable modules and packages. :)
