This seems quite bizarre: ' -INFINiTY ' works but 'infinity' does not? Please try in psql \set VERBOSITY verbose SELECT 'infinity'::float4; and send along the output. My best guess about it is that strtod() is actively broken on your platform, and is recognizing the "infinity" input but returning an incorrect endptr. I seem to recall that we've heard of such bugs before. Can you check for any updates from Sun that might affect strtod()? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
