Re: postgresql 7.3.2 bug on date '1901-12-13' and '1901-12

Hi again

We've actually determined that we didn't compile it but just downloaded a
binary from the web...(for HP-UX 11.11) so I've got no idea as to compiler
settings used on this binary...

Cheers
Arn

Hi

A test of recommended selects is as follows..

db1=> select * from sfc_days2;
 stn_num |    lsd     | max_air_temp
---------+------------+--------------
   86071 | 1901-12-13 |          3.0
(1 row)

db1=> select * from sfc_days2 where lsd = to_date('1901-12-13',
'YYYY-MM-DD');
 stn_num |    lsd     | max_air_temp
---------+------------+--------------
   86071 | 1901-12-13 |          3.0
(1 row)

db1=> select * from sfc_days2 where lsd = to_date('1901-12-14',
'YYYY-MM-DD');
 stn_num |    lsd     | max_air_temp
---------+------------+--------------
   86071 | 1901-12-13 |          3.0
(1 row)


As for compiler options I believe everything was left as default for HP-UX
11.11 (Ie the options that you have recommended I do not know if they were
set...) without further investigation...

Will try and investigate and let you know...

Thanks in advance...

Cheers
Arn

I couldn't duplicate on Redhat9 using 7.3.4 or 7.4 beta.

What does a plain select to_date('1901-12-13', 'YYYY-MM-DD')
and select to_date('1901-12-14', 'YYYY-MM-DD') give you?
And did you give --enable-integer-datetimes to configure, and
what compilation options were used on the files (specifically was
-O2 used or a higher level, was -ffast-math used, etc...)?
