well, it appears that you are quite correct. changing the column definition to float(11,3) for example now does the correct thing.

This is not a bug, its behaving exactly as it should. When you specify a float(11,9) - you're saying an 11 digit number where 9 are after the decimal, so only 2 digits are allowed before the decimal.

after lokking at this, it appears that our float(11,9) columns cannot
store an number larger than 100 or smaller than -100. the database is
rounding the number! If we insert numbers -100 < x < 100, then its fine.

is there a configuration setting somewhere, or is this a known bug?

thanks

after upgrading from 4.0.4 to 4.1.3, we noticed that some of our
float(11,9) columns refused to store anything other than the numer -100
or the number 100, even though the insert or update sql clearly
specifies other numbers. We've tried dropping the table and reloading
the data -- same problem. we're using Connector/J to load the data.

is this a know issue?
