Subject: Truly bizarre behavior with VACUUM FULL?
Date: Fri, 18 Apr 2003 15:25:59 -0700
Message-ID: <200304181525.59152.josh@agliodbs.com> (raw)

Folks,

I have a system on a 7.2.4 database.  Let me tell you what appears to be 
happening:

I have a bug-fixed version of a function, which replaced a buggy version of 
the function via CREATE OR REPLACE.  Each night, when the database goes 
through VACUUM FULL, the old (buggy) version of the function seems to 
overwrite the new (correct) version of the function.

Is it possible that VACUUM FULL is restoring the discarded tuple in the system 
table and dropping the valid one?

I can think of ways to fix this bizarre behavior, but thought that someone 
might want to look at it first.
