"man -k locale" would be my starting point (for anything POSIXish) Looks like "locale -a" does it on linux, that may be worth a try. "de_DE" is the locale for German as used in Germany. -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql

[SQL] Column Specific Update Trigger Routine
I am trying to create a update trigger on a table that basically will only fire when a specific column is updated. I am using version 8.4.3. My plan of attack was to always fire on any row update, and pass in the OLD and NEW column that I want to check. CREATE TRIGGER check_lockout AFTER UPDATE ON acct_table FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE acct_unlock(OLD.userid,OLD.ownerid,OLD.password,NEW.password); This fails with : [postg...@linux1505 ~]$ cat check_lockout_trig.sql | psql testdb ERROR: syntax error at or near "OLD" LINE 4: EXECUTE PROCEDURE acct_unlock(OLD.userid,OLD.ownerid,OLD.password,NEW.password); What am I doing wrong? Or is there a better way to go about this?

Re: [SQL] Column Specific Update Trigger Routine
This is what I have and it seems to work: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION holly_unlock() RETURNS trigger LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $$ BEGIN IF OLD.password != NEW.password THEN UPDATE hms_mtusers_rw set loginfailedcount = 0 WHERE userid = OLD.userid and ownerid = OLD.ownerid; RETURN NEW; END IF; RETURN NULL; -- result is ignored since this is an AFTER trigger END; $$; Thanks !!

The way with != will not do what you want if one value is null and the other isn't. It's possible this doesn't matter in this particular case (if password can't ever be null in this table), but being careful about nulls is a good habit to cultivate. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
