Yeah, that's clearly a bug --- fix committed, thanks for the patch! It could explain Devrim's report if the parameters passed by psql had some problem that was detectable by conninfo_array_parse(). That seems a bit unlikely, but I did think of one possibility: if Devrim was testing 9.1 psql with a 9.0 libpq (perhaps due to an rpath issue) then 9.0 libpq would spit up on client_encoding, which wasn't a legal connection parameter in 9.0. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
