Some unknown error in a function
Hi
Following is the script of my plpgsql function
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION sp_insert_tbl_vrfy_mx(int4,text, text, inet,
text, text)
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
sequence_no int4;
BEGIN
SELECT INTO sequence_no MAX(seq_no) FROM tbl_verify_mx WHERE unmask_id =
$1;
IF sequence_no > 1 THEN
sequence_no = sequence_no + 1;
ELSE
sequence_no = 1;
END IF;
IF $4 =' ' THEN
INSERT INTO tbl_verify_mx(unmask_id, seq_no, email_local,
email_domain, mail_server, mx_records )
VALUES ($1,sequence_no,$2,$3,$5,$6) ;
ELSE
INSERT INTO tbl_verify_mx(unmask_id, seq_no, email_local, email_domain,
ip_address, mail_server, mx_records )
VALUES ($1,sequence_no,$2,$3,CAST($4 as inet), $5,$6) ;
END IF;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;
I run this function using
select sp_insert_tbl_vrfy_mx(55,'jas','xyz.com','192.168.0.105', '
mail.xyz.com,'mxrecoredmxjdlkfjdk')
and get the following error:-
CONTEXT: SQL statement "SELECT $1 =' '"
PL/pgSQL function "sp_insert_tbl_vrfy_mx" line 12 at if
Don't know where I'm going wrong.
Thanks

You didn't show us the actual error message, but I suppose it's unhappy
that ' ' is not a legal inet value.
regards, tom lane
"IF $4 = ' ' THEN"
Here ' ' is not a valid inet value. If you really want to check to see
if the inet value is null, you can cast it to text and compare it.
For example: "IF text('$4') = '' Then"
That will fix your issue.
