Re: [BUGS] executing SELECT xmlelement(name foo); causes "server closed the connection unexpectedly" Error
xmlNewTextWriterMemory might be causing this issue. I have following details in this regard. the query works on postgres 8.3 installation on a system with following libxml2 istalled libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2 libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2 libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2 its a Centos 5.1 environment. the system on which this issue is appearing has following libxml2 RPMs installed libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.1 libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.1 libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.1 please note that system where the issue is has libxml2 library with higher version. to see if this higher version is causing the issue, i installed these RPMs on earlier system (where the select query works). the query still worked.

Re: [BUGS] executing SELECT xmlelement(name foo); causes "server closed the connection unexpectedly" Error
Here is an update. the 8.3 version is now working after i reinstalled the OS. most probably the issue was due to corrupt libxml2. Thank you so much for all the help to get rid off the issue.
