i have a table with test_field of type "TEXT". when i do:
select test_field from test where id=1;
the connection (with psql) hangs and no output is received, so i have to kill psql.
this occurs, at first sight, if length(test_field)>32748.
i think, in more general, the problem occurs, when the (or one) returned row is >32k.
i can do the same without any problems, if i connect without ssl or via local socket. the problem also occurs with DBI. so, i think it's not a psql issue.
i'm using Postgres 7.3.4 on slackware 9.0 with openssl 0.9.7c
the workaround to disable ssl is not really sufficient :-(
i will take a deeper look at it, if it's not a known problem.
best regards, Christian Wetzig
