hi,
With respect to the thread about is Pg ready for prime time. It

once I'm done

platforms out there that PostgreSQL supports, multiply that by however
many different hardware pieces that be thrown the standard box, and you'll
get that many different experiences...would i use it in a mission critical
box? yes

Hi,
I keep running into problems with:

Does anyone have any insights into this? And how to fix this?
Hoping for help,

Every now and then I get the following error:

Now I use php3 to read the text from the database then I append some
