There are probably hundreds of bug fixes between 8.2.3 and the current 8.2 release, which is 8.2.21. http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release.html On top of that, 8.2 is so old that it's three months away from the end of its five-year support window: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy I recommend that you apply the 8.2 bug fixes immediately, and start working on a plan to move to 9.0. If you see the problem in a version which is current and supported, please post again. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
