Ok I must be doing something wrong. I tried the same test on my old server running 8.3 which has had no problem with anything up till now (but also only working within public schema). So I am obviously not working with schemas correctly. Will read the manual for hopefully a deeper understanding.
> I did create the schemas with PgAdmin. As a test I also created another schema in psql and it too has the same problems with the function not working. I also created the function this time without relying on search_path and even altered the function and tables names slightly just in case there was some kind of conflict. Consequently there was no log error with search_path anymore but again the function will not work even though it appears to go through the motions of working.
