Hi, PostgreSQL 8.1.11 I have created a function that works fine when run for the first time after that it gives an error until I open another Query window. The function is as follows /////////////////////////////// CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION func_snappointtonetwork(p_pointtobesnapped "varchar", p_currentboundingbox "varchar") RETURNS text AS $BODY$ DECLARE v_geom bytea; v_snappedPoint varchar; v_HAPMSSection varchar; v_road varchar; v_area varchar; v_cWay varchar; v_cWayDirection varchar; BEGIN SELECT hapms2.sect_label as link_Id,distance(hapms2.geom,ST_GeomFromEWKT(p_pointToBeSnapped)) as distance INTO TEMPORARY TABLE __distances__temp FROM public.hapms_road hapms2 WHERE (hapms2.geom && ST_box2d(ST_GeomFromEWKT(p_currentBoundingBox))); SELECT INTO v_geom,v_HAPMSSection,v_road,v_area,v_cWay,v_cWayDirection asEWKB(hapms1.geom),hapms1.sect_label,hapms1.roa_number,hapms1.area_name,hapms1.funct_name,hapms1.direc_code FROM public.hapms_road hapms1 WHERE (hapms1.geom && ST_box2d(GeomFromEWKT(p_currentBoundingBox))) AND distance(hapms1.geom, GeomFromEWKT(p_pointToBeSnapped)) < all (SELECT distance FROM __distances__temp WHERE public.hapms1.sect_label <> link_Id); SELECT ST_AsEWKT(ST_line_interpolate_point(ST_LineMerge(ST_GeomFromEWKB(v_geom)),ST_line_locate_point(ST_LineMerge(ST_GeomFromEWKB(v_geom)),ST_GeomFromEWKT(p_pointToBeSnapped)))) INTO v_snappedPoint; DROP TABLE __distances__temp; RETURN v_snappedPoint || '|' || v_HAPMSSection || '|' || v_road || '|' || v_area || '|' || v_cWay || ' ' || v_cWayDirection; END; $BODY$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE; ALTER FUNCTION func_snappointtonetwork(p_pointtobesnapped "varchar", p_currentboundingbox "varchar") OWNER TO postgres; /////////////////////////////// Error: ERROR: relation with OID 100412 does not exist CONTEXT: SQL statement "SELECT asEWKB(hapms1.geom),hapms1.sect_label,hapms1.roa_number,hapms1.area_name,hapms1.funct_name,hapms1.direc_code FROM hapms_road hapms1 WHERE (hapms1.geom && ST_box2d(GeomFromEWKT( $1 ))) AND distance(hapms1.geom, GeomFromEWKT( $2 )) < all (SELECT distance FROM __distances__temp WHERE hapms1.sect_label <> link_Id)" PL/pgSQL function "func_snappointtonetwork" line 14 at select into variables //////////////////////////////////// Any help in this matter would be highly appreciated. regards, W Khattak -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
