Daylight saving bug in PostgreSQL 7.2.1 ?
Hi!
I believe I've found a bug with daylight saving time.
The example below shows that after inserting a row with a date and time
when daylight saving is changing (6 April 2003 02:00:00) any selects
using the same time and date are only returning correct result first
time. If the select is done again the row is not found.
CREATE SEQUENCE timespan_idx_seq INCREMENT 1 MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 9223372036854775807 CACHE 1;
CREATE TABLE timespan (
host text NOT NULL,
starttime timestamptz NOT NULL,
endtime timestamptz NOT NULL,
idx int8 DEFAULT nextval('"timespan_idx_seq"'::text) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT timespan_pkey PRIMARY KEY (host, starttime, endtime)
) WITH OIDS;
-- Index: timespan_i1
CREATE INDEX timespan_i1 ON timespan USING btree (host);
-- Index: timespan_i2
CREATE INDEX timespan_i2 ON timespan USING btree (starttime);
-- Index: timespan_i3
CREATE INDEX timespan_i3 ON timespan USING btree (endtime);
-- Index: timespan_i4
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX timespan_i4 ON timespan USING btree (idx);
-- Index: timespan_i5
CREATE INDEX timespan_i5 ON timespan USING btree (host, starttime);
-- Index: timespan_i6
CREATE INDEX timespan_i6 ON timespan USING btree (host, endtime);
INSERT INTO timespan VALUES('XXXXXX', ' 6-APR-2003 02:00:00', ' 6-APR-2003 03:00:00');
test=# SELECT idx FROM timespan WHERE host='XXXXXX' AND starttime=' 6-APR-2003 02:00:00' AND endtime=' 6-APR-2003 03:00:00';

Hi,
I had similar problem that select returned 1 or 0 rows (with the same
query) (if you want - see "SELECT bug?")
I don't know where is the problem, but try to reindex table timespan.
In my database it resolved all problems (hope so ;) )
Now select return correct values.

I cannot reproduce this here, using either 7.2.4 or current.

Ok, it is working for me too with 7.2.4.
Seems something was fixed between 7.2.1 and 7.2.4.
Thanks
