Both st_distance_sphere(geometry,geometry) and distance_sphere(geometry,
geometry) currently exist in PostGIS.
They both call the same C function LWGEOM_distance_sphere.
postgis=# \df+ st_distance_sphere
List of functions
Schema | Name | Result data type | Argument data types |
Owner | Language | Source code | Description
--------+--------------------+------------------+---------------------+----------+----------+------------------------+-------------
public | st_distance_sphere | double precision | geometry, geometry |
postgres | c | LWGEOM_distance_sphere |
(1 row)
postgis=# \df+ distance_sphere
List of functions
Schema | Name | Result data type | Argument data types |
Owner | Language | Source code | Description
--------+-----------------+------------------+---------------------+----------+----------+------------------------+-------------
public | distance_sphere | double precision | geometry, geometry |
postgres | c | LWGEOM_distance_sphere |
(1 row)
The distance_sphere(geometry, geometry) has been deprecated, so use the
st_ version.
Cheers,

thanks for your reply
through the miracle of remote IRC, I get some chars translated on
paste, so no, I did not have a double p
however, no ST_ fixed it.. I was reading the docs, they plainly say
ST_distance_sphere()
How to find this - actual calls vs alleged calls? Hunt in the SQL ?
will look
