That's the behavior change I'm > looking to account for. Ah, gotcha. I believe that the FATAL case occurs if the client tries to set an invalid parameter value within the connection startup packet, rather than after connecting. But that behavior hasn't changed in a long time either. I think what you need to be looking for is a client-side change in how/when it sends a desired timezone setting to the server. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
