Direzione di ricerca

Start by running the provided cypher() reproduction on PostgreSQL 15 with AGE 1.8.0, then inspect the variable-length traversal planner associated with the regression from issue 2450. Done means the generated-column setup no longer raises the attribute-mapping error and both zero-hop and subsequent graph layers return successfully.

Descrizione

bug

Describe the bug
Executing a variable-length edge (VLE) traversal that starts with a zero-hop evaluation (*0..) triggers an unexpected relational engine crash: ERROR: Invalid number of attributes for <graph_name>.<vertex_label_name>. Even though the vertex and edge tables exist and are populated, the internal VLE execution planner fails to map the column definitions of the target label table when matching variable-length paths. This is a severe regression introduced in the PG15/1.8.0 release due to this fix https://github.com/apache/age/issues/2450.

How are you accessing AGE (Command line, driver, etc.)?
Directly via cypher() SQL function (IN psql client).

What data setup do we need to do?

-- 1. Create a fresh graph and register both vertex and edge labels
SELECT create_graph('age_bug');
SELECT create_vlabel('age_bug', 'Product');
SELECT create_elabel('age_bug', 'HAVE');

-- 2. Add generated column (this triggers the bug)
ALTER TABLE age_bug."Product"
	ADD COLUMN category VARCHAR(25) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (agtype_access_operator(properties, '"category"')) STORED;

-- 3. Populate data with three linked dummy products forming a continuous path
SELECT * FROM cypher('age_bug', $$
   CREATE (p1:Product {category: 'device', type: 'D123', version: 1})
   CREATE (p2:Product {category: 'cpu', type: 'I123', version: 1})
   CREATE (p3:Product {category: 'chip', type: 'C123', version: 1})

   // Create the structural edge links between them
   CREATE (p1)-[:HAVE]->(p2)
   CREATE (p2)-[:HAVE]->(p3)
$$) AS (_ agtype);

What is the necessary configuration info needed?

  • No configuration needed

What is the command that caused the error?

SELECT * FROM cypher('age_bug', $$
    MATCH (_:Product { category: 'device', type: 'D123', version: 1 })-[have_path:HAVE*1..]->(product:Product)
    RETURN product
$$)
AS (node agtype);
ERROR: 
psql client log: 
SQL Error [42P01]: ERROR: Invalid number of attributes for age_bug.Product

server log: 
ERROR:  Invalid number of attributes for age_bug.Product
STATEMENT:  SELECT * FROM cypher('age_bug', $$
            MATCH (_:Product { category: 'device', type: 'D123', version: 1 })-[have_path:HAVE*1..]->(product:Product)
            RETURN product
        $$)
        AS (node agtype)

Expected behavior
The query execution should succeed without a schema exception. For a *0.. quantifier, it should evaluate the initial root matched node as a valid 0-hop result set, and then cleanly walk down the 1-hop and 2-hop graph layers instead of crashing with a table attribute mapping mismatch.
