Hi, I've written some PostgreSQL C functions which expose the functionality of Theodore Ts'o's UUID library. I need to add a few sanity clauses here and there, but working (mostly) code can be found here: http://www.yellowbank.com/code/PostgreSQL/uuid/ I have one problem. My y_uuid_time function works on my laptop (Kubuntu/Dapper), but not on another box (Debian Sarge). PostgreSQL 8.1.4 in both cases. When it works, it looks like this: rpeterso=# select y_uuid_time( y_uuid_generate_time() ); y_uuid_time --------------------- 2006-10-17 14:29:34 When it doesn't, it looks like this: rpeterso=# select y_uuid_time( y_uuid_generate_time() ); server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request. The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed. !> I've been staring at my array bounds so hard it's giving me headache. If anyone can identify what might be wrong, I'd greatly appreciate it. Best. -- Ron Peterson https://www.yellowbank.com/
