OK, I give up :) How do I use the numeric type?

postgres=> create table n1 (n numeric(10,5), d decimal(10,5));
CREATE
postgres=> insert into n1 values ('1.23456', '1.23456');
ERROR:  overflow on numeric       ABS(value) >= 10^0 for field with precision 2087 scale 31828
postgres=> insert into n1 values ('12345.23456', '1.23456');
ERROR:  overflow on numeric       ABS(value) >= 10^4 for field with precision 2087 scale 50860

Works here.  Don't you hate when that happens:test=> create table n1 (n numeric(10,5), d decimal(10,5));CREATEtest=>

*sigh* 

Any hints on where to look? I did a CVSup update, then a "cvs -PdA" on
my development tree, a "make clean install" and an initdb. I did not try
a full clean checkout, but would think that it wouldn't help.

Anyone else running on Linux/i686/libc5 having success? If so, I'll go
back to working on outer joins...

Maybe you need to repeat the "configure" step?  If Jan made any changes
in Makefile.in's, config.h.in, etc, then failing to reconfigure would
mean building with old files.

I tend to do "make distclean" before any CVS update and "configure"
afterwards...

    Seems to me like the typmod value given to

        Numeric numeric(Numeric num, int dummy, int32 typmod)

    got  mangled  up  somewhere.  First you should check that the
    atttypmod in pg_attribute for n1.n and n1.d  is  correct.  It
    should have the value

        ((precision << 16) | scale) + 4

    and must be 655369 for a numeric(10,5).

    If   that   isn't   the  case,  you  might  take  a  look  at
    include/nodes/parsenodes.h.   The  typmod  field  of   struct
    TypeName  should  be  of int32 (I changed that shortly before
    moving numeric into the backend).

    If that isn't the error, it would be good if you're a  little
    familiar  with  gdb.  If  so,  set  a  breakpoint on function
    numeric()  and  try  to  find  where   on   it's   way   from
    pg_attribute.atttypmod  to  the  call  to  numeric()  it  got
    mangled up.

I assume it is some OS thing.

On my Linux box/i586/libc5, postgresql 6.4.2:

test=> create table n1 (n numeric(10,5), d decimal(10,5));
ERROR:  NUMERIC precision 10 must be 9
test=>

Something weird ! I compiled postgres 6.4.2 after applying Jan's feature
patch and configure --enable-locale

    Not  weird.  The  new  NUMERIC  datatype (arbitrary precision
    numeric format) isn't part of the v6.4 tree and will not  be.

    It's  only  in the current development tree which will become
    v6.5.
