Bug reference: 1832
Logged by: Bohdan Linda
Email address: bohdan.linda (AT) seznam (DOT) cz
PostgreSQL version: 7.3.4
Operating system: Solaris
Description: Can't create function in plpgsql which has more than 10
parameters
Details:

I have found if I will create functions as:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION addSyslog (
VARCHAR
,VARCHAR(50)
,INET
,TIMESTAMP
,VARCHAR(255)
,NUMERIC(5)
,NUMERIC
,INET
,INTEGER
,INET
,INTEGER
) RETURNS INTEGER AS '
DECLARE
BEGIN
RETURN 1;
END
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

and I will try to call:
SELECT
addSyslog('StrA','Strb','100.100.100.100','2005-08-17
12:24:37.545024','aaaaa log
message',555,87923463,'192.168.0.1',0,'192.168.0.2 ',0);

I will get:
WARNING: plpgsql: ERROR during compile of addsyslog near line 3
ERROR: syntax error at or near ","

But if I call:
SELECT
addSyslog('StrA','Strb','100.100.100.100','2005-08-17
12:24:37.545024','aaaaa log
message',555,87923463,'192.168.0.1',0,'192.168.0.2 ');

everything goes well. I shall be able to pass more than 10 parameters.

TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings

Your example works fine for me. Maybe something broken about your local
copy of Postgres?
