I'm getting strange results that I think can be
explained by having an index that isn't set up right.

CREATE TABLE URL_POLICY (
   url_id       INTEGER NOT NULL,
   policy_id    INTEGER NOT NULL,
   policy_order INTEGER NULL,
   PRIMARY KEY (url_id, policy_id)
) TYPE=BDB; 

INSERT INTO testtbl values(100,100,null);
INSERT INTO testtbl values(100,101,null);
INSERT INTO testtbl values(100,102,null);
INSERT INTO testtbl values(100,103,null);
INSERT INTO testtbl values(100,104,null);
INSERT INTO testtbl values(100,105,null);


Here is the problem:

SELECT * from URL_POLICY;

url_id   policy_id   policy_order
100      100         NULL
100      101         NULL
100      102         NULL
100      103         NULL
100      104         NULL
100      105         NULL


All seems in order, but as soon as I add a where
clause (SELECT * from URL_POLICY where url_id=100) I
only get a subset of those rows back.

Explain isn't all that useful since there are no
joins, but the "key_len" of 4 seems like it might be a
problem.

Another odd thing is that I can't reproduce this using
a different database, but I see it on the existing
table (even adding new rows to test with).  The
CREATE/INSERTs above are exactly what we used.

Machine is SPARC/Solaris 7, running MySQL 3.23.34a.

Any guidance?  It seemed like it might be a FAQ, but I
didn't see anything in the manual or a quick search of
the archives.
