The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 4963 Logged by: William Crawford Email address: will...@ezyield.com PostgreSQL version: 8.3.7 Operating system: Gentoo Description: Selecting timestamp without timezone at timezone gives wrong output Details:
set time zone 'US/Eastern'; select timestamp '2009-01-01', timestamp '2009-01-01' at time zone 'US/Pacific' as withouttimezone, timestamp with time zone '2009-01-01' at time zone 'US/Pacific' as withtimezone; timestamp | withouttimezone | withtimezone ---------------------+------------------------+--------------------- 2009-01-01 00:00:00 | 2009-01-01 03:00:00-05 | 2008-12-31 21:00:00 (1 row) I expect the last 2 values to be the same. (WithTimeZone is correct.) Instead, it goes the correct number of hours in the wrong direction for WithoutTimeZone. This happens for all time zones that I've tested. Also happens when pulling data from a table, and not just on this select statement, and with or without times. select version(); version ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- PostgreSQL 8.3.7 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc (Gentoo 4.3.2-r3 p1.6, pie-10.1.5) 4.3.2 (Also happens on 8.2.6.) -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
