Ah, that's the missing bit: regression=# select now()::timestamp; now ---------------------------- 2006-01-10 14:44:31.517463 (1 row) regression=# set timezone = 'America/Indiana'; ERROR: unrecognized time zone name: "America/Indiana" regression=# select now()::timestamp; server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request. Seems to work fine in the 7.4, 8.1, and HEAD branches ... but 8.0 is busted.
