* Prevent pg_ctl from being run as root. Since it uses configuration filesTom Lane2004-10-22
| | | | | | | | owned by postgres, doing "pg_ctl start" as root could allow a privilege escalation attack, as pointed out by iDEFENSE. Of course the postmaster would fail, but we ought to fail a little sooner to protect sysadmins unfamiliar with Postgres. The chosen fix is to disable root use of pg_ctl in all cases, just to be confident there are no other holes.

* Repair possible failure to update hint bits back to disk, perTom Lane2004-10-13
| | | | | | http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-10/msg00464.php. I plan a more permanent fix in HEAD, but for the back branches it seems best to just touch the places that actually have a problem.
* Fix breakage in hashjoin from recent backpatch of left-join bug fix.Tom Lane2004-10-13
| | | | (That's what I get for not testing the back branches *before* committing.)
* Hashed LEFT JOIN would miss outer tuples with no inner match if the joinTom Lane2004-09-17
| | | | | | was large enough to be batched and the tuples fell into a batch where there were no inner tuples at all. Thanks to Xiaoyu Wang for finding a test case that exposed this long-standing bug.

* Fix failure to guarantee that a checkpoint will write out pg_clog updatesTom Lane2004-08-11
| | | | | | for transaction commits that occurred just before the checkpoint. This is an EXTREMELY serious bug --- kudos to Satoshi Okada for creating a reproducible test case to prove its existence.

* Always schema-qualify the name of a function referenced in CREATE CAST.Tom Lane2004-03-02
| | | | | The former coding failed if the cast function was not in the pg_catalog schema. How'd this escape detection?

* When returning type "record", replace use of pgresultGetTupleDescJoe Conway2004-02-24
| | | | | | | | with ReturnSetInfo->expectedDesc. This allows custom datatypes (e.g. from tsearch2) to be returned at runtime. Previous behavior depended on the type oid to match between the remote and local database, which obviously doesn't work well for custom types. Per report from Mark Gibson.
* pply quote_literal to the start_with argument of connectby. Fixes problemJoe Conway2004-02-24
| | | | reported by David Garamond when working with bytea parent and child keys.

* Fix text_position to not scan past end of source string in multibyteJoe Conway2004-02-01

* Repair incorrect order of operations in GetNewTransactionId(). We mustTom Lane2004-01-26
| | | | | | complete ExtendCLOG() before advancing nextXid, so that if that routine fails, the next incoming transaction will try it again. Per trouble report from Christopher Kings-Lynne.
* Revert ill-starred change of 13-Feb-02: it appeared to fix a problem ofTom Lane2004-01-14
| | | | | | | | | incorrect permissions checking, but in fact disabled most all permissions checks for view updates. This corrects problems reported by Sergey Yatskevich among others, at the cost of re-introducing the problem previously reported by Tim Burgess. However, since we'd lived with that problem for quite awhile without knowing it, we can live with it awhile longer until a proper fix can be made in 7.5.
* Repair indexed bytea like operations, and related selectivityJoe Conway2003-12-07

* Force zero_damaged_pages to be effectively ON during recovery from WAL,Tom Lane2003-12-01
| | | | | since there is no need to worry about damaged pages when we are going to overwrite them anyway from the WAL. Per recent discussion.
* Back-patch fix to check vartypmod when matching PlannerParamVar entries.Tom Lane2003-11-30
| | | | | | This should prevent some obscure cases of 'variable not in subplan target lists', although actual failures have only been reported against 7.4 in which the bug is much easier to trigger.
* Back-patch fix to cause stats processes to detach from shared memory,Tom Lane2003-11-30
| | | | | so that they do not prevent the postmaster from deleting the shmem segment during crash recovery.
* Make PQescapeBytea and byteaout consistent with each other, andJoe Conway2003-11-30
| | | | | | octal escape all octets outside the range 0x20 to 0x7e. This fixes the problem pointed out by Sergey Yatskevich here: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2003-11/msg00140.php
* Added missing SPI_finish() calls to get_tuple_of_interest(). Fixes bugJoe Conway2003-11-26

* Back-patch removal of unnecessary inclusion of <crypt.h>, so thatTom Lane2003-10-31
| | | | 7.3.5 will build out-of-the-box on Solaris.
* Moved the recently added test for foreign key disabled by rewriteJan Wieck2003-10-31
| | | | | | rule into the rule.sql since it affects the latter if run in paralell. Jan
* Fix for possible referential integrity violation when a qualified ON INSERTJan Wieck2003-10-31
| | | | | | | | rule split the query into one INSERT and one UPDATE where the UPDATE then hit's the just created row without modifying the key fields again. In this special case, the new key slipped in totally unchecked. Jan
* Support for qualified type names in PL/Tcl's spi_prepare command.Jan Wieck2003-10-30
| | | | | | | | This is not 100% backward compatible as formerly a double quoted type name containing a dot could be used. But I don't think may people use dot's in the name of user defined types. Jan
* Don't choke when the handler for a procedural language is located inTom Lane2003-10-28
| | | | the pg_catalog schema. Per bug report some months back from Jochem van Dieten.
* It is possible for ResolveNew to be used to insert a sublink into aTom Lane2003-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | subquery that didn't previously have one. We have traditionally made the caller of ResolveNew responsible for updating the hasSubLinks flag of the outermost query, but this fails to account for hasSubLinks in subqueries. Fix ResolveNew to handle this. We might later want to change the calling convention of ResolveNew so that it can fix the outer query too, simplifying callers. But I went with the localized fix for now. Per bug report from J Smith, 20-Oct-03.
* When dumping CREATE INDEX, must show opclass name if the opclass isn'tTom Lane2003-10-02
| | | | | | in the schema search path. Otherwise pg_dump doesn't correctly dump scenarios where a custom opclass is created in 'public' and then used by indexes in other schemas.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi There's a bug in the clusterdb script where it looks like the arguments to the psql command are being passed in the wrong order, so it fails when you run it on a database that is not on localhost.
