using a plpgsql-function and strange behaviour
Hello,
today I tried the following on 7.0.2:
elwood=# CREATE FUNCTION add_one (int4) RETURNS int4 AS '
elwood'# BEGIN
elwood'# RETURN $1 + 1;
elwood'# END;
elwood'# ' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
CREATE
elwood=# select add_one(1);
The result of this was:
pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
This probably means the backend terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.
!# \q
The Backend actually died and restarted. Has someone an idea for this, or am
I using the function the wrong way?
Konstantin

Odd. It works fine for me on 7.0.2:
play=> select add_one(1);
add_one

Something broken about your installation, I think, but it's hard
to tell what. Did anything show up in the postmaster log? Is there
a corefile you can get a backtrace from?
