Hello All,
I know there's been quite a few posts on Zip Code Proximity.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to find the code to calulate
the distance between two zip codes?
I'm basically trying to take a zip code given by a user and return them
all of the zip codes within, say 10 miles o

Hi,
When I try to use pg_dump, I get this error. Can it have something to
do with a custom type I added. I made sure I added the input/output functions
and comparision functions for sorting and queries.
The type works fine in SQL queries in general.

I don't know the internals of PostgreSQL, but logically INTERSECT is a join, but with
an automatic
default generation of the WHERE clause. As such, there should not be any difference in
performance
on tables that are large enough to mask small differences in the time it takes to
parse the

hi,
we're looking at migrating from ORACLE to postgres in the
very near future and we've run into a small problem. there's
a data type defined "LINE". we have named one of our tables
as "LINE" also and it would require a great deal of code
changes to rename that table. is it possible to sim
Dear All,
I'll be away for a few weeks... can anyone tell me how to switch my mail
from this mailing list off for the duration, and how to switch it to digest
mode on my return?
Thanks much

If I set the block size from 8k to 16k by editing /include/config.h, then all
tuples will take up 16k on disk? If true, it just wastes lots of disk space if
you are really not going to be storing more than 8k in most tuples?

I believe there is a bug, or at least a not very nice feature in initdb.
If initdb does not succeed, it attempts to "exit_nicely". By default
this involved deleting the $PGDATA directory!! So if you have put other
things in you $PGDATA directory or (as in my case) you attempt to create
a datab
I've just created a new database and I am wondering...
Why are all sequence files 8K? They're one freaking int.
How come the indexes are so large? They tend to be larger than the
database files themselves. In one case I have a 16K index on an empty
table.

Okay, I could go for the former. What do others think?

I'd like to write some functions in embedded perl. I have installed
Mandrake from the RPMS recommended on this list a few days ago ( They
worked great, by the way). I have also downloaded the source so I can
compile plperl.so. But I can't because appearantly libperl.so is not
configured proper

Does your cat command show your Chinese texts correctly? If not, that
might not be a PostgreSQL problem.
BTW, what kind of encoding are you using for

I am inclined to leave it as is too. I can imagine many bug re
Thanks Jeff. I'm the guy that started that thread. Been meaning to get
back to the problem but had other issues on the project. Now I know what to
do next. Appreciate your posting the solution.
