Hallo, I just encountered a stange behaviour: The following query gives zero rows. bitoek=> SELECT name from file where name = 'mitarbeiter/mit/mitarbeiter_ehemalig.php'; name ------ (0 Zeilen) Replacing "=" by like and escaping the underscore gives the row I knew to be there: bitoek=> SELECT name from file where name like 'mitarbeiter/mit/mitarbeiter\_ehemalig.php'; name ------------------------------------------ mitarbeiter/mit/mitarbeiter_ehemalig.php (1 Zeile) Other queries with the equal operator do match rows. Am I missing something?
