Hi,
I use:
agro=# select version(); version
---------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL 7.0.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc
2.95.3
compiled with "--enable-locales --enable-encoding --with-tcl" options on
Mandrake LINUX 7.2 with 2.2.17-21mdk kernel.
I have BIG problems when I want to do the following "select":
agro=# SELECT * FROM conturi WHERE id ~* '^1:1:[0-9]*:$' ORDER BY id;
The conditions are the following:
Table "conturi" has the following structure:
agro=# \d conturi Table "conturi"Attribute | Type | Modifier
-----------+-------------+----------id | varchar(32) | not nullcheie | varchar(32) |denumire | varchar(60)
|not nulltip | char(1) | not nullfunctie | char(1) |cc | integer |
Index: conturi_id
I use the unique index conturi_id on field id.
agro=# SELECT * FROM conturi ORDER BY id LIMIT 20; id | cheie | denumire
| tip | functie | cc

Realy I have:
agro=# SELECT count(*) FROM conturi;count
------- 2690
(1 row)
rows in table.
(VACUUM ... VACUUM ANALYZE was used before I do this example)
The "id" field define a tree structure and, if I want to find all children of
"1:0:", I do:
agro=# SELECT * FROM conturi WHERE id ~* '^1:0:[0-9]*:$' ORDER BY id;id | cheie | denumire | tip | functie | cc
----+-------+----------+-----+---------+----
(0 rows)
When I drop the unique index ...
agro=# DROP INDEX conturi_id;
DROP
agro=# SELECT * FROM conturi WHERE id ~* '^1:0:[0-9]*:$' ORDER BY id; id | cheie | denumire
| tip | functie | cc

(6 rows)
it works fine ... but if create the index again ...
agro=# CREATE UNIQUE INDEX conturi_id ON conturi(id);
CREATE
agro=# SELECT * FROM conturi WHERE id ~* '^1:0:[0-9]*:$' ORDER BY id;id | cheie | denumire | tip | functie | cc
----+-------+----------+-----+---------+----
(0 rows)
nothing again.
When I use the same succesion of commands on a table with the same structure but
wonly 10 rows the "SELECT" works fine with or without index.
On 6.5.3 (compiled exactly on same machine and conditions) I have no problems
with this "SELECT", it works (the biggest structure have 10.000 rows).
Any sugestions ... ???
Thanks in advance and ... sorry for my english!!
