The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 1725 Logged by: Charlie Monkton Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 7.4.6 Operating system: Solaris 9 Description: psql --command and PQexec do not work and fail silently Details:
Create the following tables: create table test ( i int primary key not null ); create table test_ref ( i int references test(i) on delete cascade ); Executing the following SQL via the psql -c option (or PQexec does not work: psql -c "delete from test;insert into test values ( 1 );insert into test_ref values ( 1 );" INSERT 30816 1 #select * from test_ref; i --- (0 rows) echo "delete from test;insert into test values ( 1 );insert into test_ref values ( 1 );" | /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql DELETE 1 INSERT 30813 1 INSERT 30814 1 # select * from test_ref; i --- 1 (1 row) This is very bad as multiple statement executed by PQexec fail and do not return an error message. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
