Hello again,<br /><br /> well, still everything is working.<br /><br /> What information do you need to get into this
issue?<br /><br /> Well, so far i can say, we dont use ALTER TYPE ADD VALUE. We use some more or less changed enum_add
andenum_del (Which are appended at the end) to be able to change enums within transactions.<br /><br /> And that this
happenedto the beta server and not to the staging server, might be because we sometimes have to drop the whole stuff of
staging,because of some failures we did, so old enum values will not be persistent in old indexes. <br /><br /> if you
needmore info, just ask. :)<br /><br /> regards Bernhard<br /><br /><font size="-1">SET check_function_bodies =
