The OID of type timestamp has not changed. Perhaps you are now querying some other table. I'd suggest looking into pg_type to find out what type is represented by the OID you're now getting, and then searching pg_attribute to see what's using that. select typname from pg_type where oid = 123456; select attrelid::regclass, attname from pg_attribute where atttypid = 123456; Also, if you really do mean that you changed only libpq and nothing about the server side, I'd have to guess that you're connecting to some other database than before. That would be surprising, but with zero details it's hard to debug. regards, tom lane
