(bs@niggard.org) reports a bug with a severity of 2
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
Another plpgsql crash

Long Description
Ok, just found another one:
The function crashes, when the corresponding user is not found.

This one just looks too common, so i guess i messed up installation?

Sample Code
CREATE FUNCTION "new_news" (varchar ) RETURNS int4 AS '
DECLARE
letzte_nachricht_p INT4;
BEGIN
SELECT letzte_nachricht INTO letzte_nachricht_p FROM luser WHERE uid = $1;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

Re: Another plpgsql crash

See reply to your previous bug report. 7.1 doesn't have this problem or fetch
the latest from CVS's REL7_1_STABLE branch.

If this is 7.1.1, then that's an already-known problem (I broke
plpgsql's SELECT for the case of no rows found :-(). It'll be
fixed in 7.1.2, or you can get the source-code patch from
techdocs.postgresql.org.
