Works fine for me in 7.4.7 ... I get log entries like this: LOG: invalid IP address "1727.0.0.1" in pg_hba.conf file: Unknown server error LOG: invalid entry in pg_hba.conf file at line 56, token "1727.0.0.1" FATAL: missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file HINT: See server log for details. and after I fix the pg_hba.conf file it lets me in again. I see no crash. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
