On further probing, I can make it happen with float datetimes too, if I throw enough fractional nines in there: regression=# select '1999-08-06 00:12:57.999999999999999999999999999900'::timestamptz; ERROR: date/time field value out of range: "1999-08-06 00:12:57.999999999999999999999999999900" The problem seems to be here: /* do a sanity check */ #ifdef HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP if (tm->tm_hour < 0 || tm->tm_min < 0 || tm->tm_min > 59 || tm->tm_sec < 0 || tm->tm_sec > 60 || *fsec < INT64CONST(0) || *fsec >= USECS_PER_SEC) return DTERR_FIELD_OVERFLOW; #else if (tm->tm_hour < 0 || tm->tm_min < 0 || tm->tm_min > 59 || tm->tm_sec < 0 || tm->tm_sec > 60 || *fsec < 0 || *fsec >= 1) return DTERR_FIELD_OVERFLOW; #endif With enough nines, the fsec value is going to round up to 1.0 (float case) or USECS_PER_SEC (int case). So I think that this check ought to allow, not exclude, the boundary value. And then we need to be sure the subsequent code adds the values together properly, but that probably happens okay already. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
