[Note]

Release Date

This release contains a variety of fixes from 7.4.22. For information about new features in the 7.4 major release, see Section E.177, « Release 7.4 ».

E.154.1. Migration to Version 7.4.23

A dump/restore is not required for those running 7.4.X. However, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 7.4.11, see Section E.166, « Release 7.4.11 ».

E.154.2. Changes

  • Fix backend crash when the client encoding cannot represent a localized error message (Tom)

    We have addressed similar issues before, but it would still fail if the « character has no equivalent » message itself couldn't be converted. The fix is to disable localization and send the plain ASCII error message when we detect such a situation.

  • Fix incorrect tsearch2 headline generation when single query item matches first word of text (Sushant Sinha)

  • Fix improper display of fractional seconds in interval values when using a non-ISO datestyle in an --enable-integer-datetimes build (Ron Mayer)

  • Ensure SPI_getvalue and SPI_getbinval behave correctly when the passed tuple and tuple descriptor have different numbers of columns (Tom)

    This situation is normal when a table has had columns added or removed, but these two functions didn't handle it properly. The only likely consequence is an incorrect error indication.

  • Fix ecpg's parsing of CREATE USER (Michael)
