1. tsearch2 headline function fails to parse integer arguments

   Tom Hebbron <postgresql.org@hebbron.com> — 2005-01-06T21:29:02Z

   SELECT headline('some text to search',to_tsquery('text'),'StartSel=<b>, 
   StopSel=</b>, ShortWord=3')
   
   On 8.0beta1 through 8.0rc3 this query fails with
   ERROR: invalid input syntax for integer: "3"
   
   The same is reported when using any of the argument in the option string 
   that take integers (MinWords and MaxWords)
   e.g.
   
   SELECT headline('some text to search',to_tsquery('text'),'StartSel=<b>, 
   StopSel=</b>, MaxWords=35, MinWords=15, ShortWord=3');
   
   ERROR:  invalid input syntax for integer: "35"
   
   Using the bundled tsearch2 from PostgreSQL 7.4.3 the headline function works 
   as expected, and the above examples return without error.
   
   There also seems to be a problem with the bug submission form on the 
   website - the wwwmaster.postgresql.org server that handles the POST data 
   doesn't respond - it appears to be down?

   Thanks for the report.  Patch applied.

   Not my turf, but maybe someone on pgsql-www will know what's up.

   It seems to have been a temporary or intermittent problem.  I just went 
   to the bug submission form at:
   
   http://www.postgresql.org/support/submitbug
   
   ...and submitted a bug successfully.  The "Thank you" page took a few 
   seconds to load than I was expecting (about 10 seconds in total), but 
   didn't time out.
   
   If we get more reports of this, indicating its a continuing problem, 
   then we'll look into it.  Otherwise, hopefully the failure was just a 
   once-off.
   
   Thanks for letting us know guys.
   
   Regards and best wishes,
