Good morning.

My issue is more or less similar to
http://www.postgresql-archive.org/Upgrading-from-PG-8-3-3-to-9-3-4-FATAL-invalid-value-for-parameter...

However what I'm looking to answer is why this wasn't fatal in 9.2? From
that other thread, it seems like the change occurred in 9.3, and in the 9.3
release notes I see this:

Sync our copy of the timezone library with IANA release tzcode2017c (Tom

Would this explain why the app server was able to connect with
timezone='CST' (in my case) in 9.2 but not in 9.6? Our workaround was
either to use CST6CDT or just not set it altogether (which is what we chose
since we're always in US/Central).

For what it's worth this is on CentOS 6.

Don.

It was.  I don't think PG has ever accepted just "PST" (or "CDT") as a
timezone name.  There's no such entry in the IANA tz database, and it's
not a legal POSIX zone specification --- you'd need at least "PST8" for
it to go through that code path.  I tried it just now on 7.4.30, which is
the oldest version I have on this machine (about 2 years older than 9.2.0)
and it failed as expected:

regression=# set timezone = 'PST';
ERROR:  unrecognized time zone name: "PST"

Now, it's barely conceivable that you strong-armed 9.2 into accepting
it by making a file or symlink named "PST" in the timezone database
directory of the old installation ... but otherwise, I'm quite certain
it would not have taken it.

I agree that it isn't valid, and I get that same error when I try to set
the timezone to CST after I connect.

The difference though is when the client sets that timezone when
connecting, that's when the error is listed as FATAL and the connections
fail in 9.6 (and also 9.3 according to the previous thread), where as the
connections didn't fail in 9.2 and earlier. That's the behavior change I'm
looking to account for.

Ah, gotcha.  I believe that the FATAL case occurs if the client tries
to set an invalid parameter value within the connection startup packet,
rather than after connecting.  But that behavior hasn't changed in
a long time either.  I think what you need to be looking for is a
client-side change in how/when it sends a desired timezone setting to
the server.

That's what I thought as well. However the only thing that changed
yesterday was upgrading Postgres from 9.2.22 to 9.6.6. The app didn't
change and the Postgres timezone stayed at 'US/Central' as it has been all
year. I'm assuming David Wall had a similar scenario in his 8.3.3-to-9.3.4
upgrade.

In our case the client app was running through Tomcat, and had a setenv.sh
that had "-Duser.timezone=CST". That wasn't causing any known issues until
we upgraded our dev database yesterday, and our pre-prod and prod app
servers have that same setting and are up and running vs 9.2.22 still. As I
said before, we have a workaround/fix (using CST6CDT or just removing that
parameter altogether from the options string), but given that everything
else is the same, I have to believe something changed in how Postgres
handles those connections in 9.3 and beyond. I'm just very curious to know
for certain what that was. I'm sure there's more than a few people on
Postgres <= 9.2 that might hit this when upgrading in the near future (now
that 9.2 is EOL).

I may have spoken too soon. We did upgrade the Postgres JDBC drivers on
that client app server yesterday, from 9.1-903 to 42.1.4 for Java 1.6.
Perhaps they changed something along the way there.

I think you need to look harder for what else you changed --- perhaps a
new JDBC driver version rode along with the core-PG update?

I can reproduce the FATAL case in psql+libpq:

$ PGTZ=PST psql
psql: FATAL:  invalid value for parameter "TimeZone": "PST"

However, I can reproduce that back to 7.4.30 as well.  I am entirely
confident that you are not looking at a server behavior change here.

The relevant question then would be just when/how the JDBC driver tries
to propagate that setting to the server.  I'm not up on their release
history, but it wouldn't surprise me a bit if they'd changed at some point
to send the timezone setting in the startup packet rather than later.
It'd be a sensible change to eliminate one network round trip during
connection startup.  We made libpq do it that way in 7.4 when we
introduced the capability of having parameter settings in the startup
packet, but it likely would have taken awhile for other drivers to get
on board.

Yes this did change yesterday as well, I noted in a follow-up.

However, looking at the catalina.out file, I see these fatal timezone
parameter messages back to October of last year, then nothing until
yesterday. My guess is they got this same error, then fixed it somehow that
apparently didn't stay fixed.

Looks like this is definitely related to JDBC driver change. We stopped the
app and put the 9.1 jdbc jar back into place, and put the
"-Duser.timezone=CST" back into setenv.sh, and it started and connected
just fine. We do the same thing with the 42.1.4 jdbc jar and we get the
FATAL errors until we take that user.timezone parameter out. Everything
else stays equal (DB is 9.6.6).

My working guess right now is that the older JDBC was ignoring that
user.timezone parameter when the connection was made. Would be interested
in finding out when change happened to confirm.

Looks like this was actually answered in that other thread:

Looks like that is in ConnectionFactoryImpl.java but the current git repo
history only goes back to 2015. But at this point I'm satisfied in knowing
that upgrading from JDBC 9.1 to a newer JDBC introduced the change we see.

Thanks,

Just FYI that I confirmed this code appears in pgjdbc 9.2-1004, and is NOT
in 9.1-903.

Mystery solved. Thanks Tom for talking me off the ledge.
