FATAL is probably a bad choice of words here; it basically means any error condition reported by the server that caused execution of your query to be abandoned. NONFATAL_ERROR actually means "notice or warning message", and isn't a possible return code from PQexec anyway. I think BAD_RESPONSE is historical at the moment; I don't see it being generated anywhere in the library. regards, tom lane
