Untrusted functions on index creation.

Hi,

I want a case independent index on people's names and am having troubles.

Here is some output from a postgres run:

/*
* First lets drop the tables and index
*/
drop index upper_name ;
drop function myupper (text);
drop table prosb;
drop sequence prosb_brief_seq;
/*
* now make them
*/
create table prosb (
animal_s text,
brief serial primary key,
defendant_name text ,
payment_received text
... ETC
);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence prosb_brief_seq for SERIAL column prosb.brief
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE/PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index prosb_pkey for table prosb
CREATE
create function
myupper (text)
returns text
AS 'SELECT upper($1);' LANGUAGE 'sql';
CREATE
/*
* the index creation works fine
*/
create index upper_name on prosb (myupper(defendant_name) varchar_ops);
CREATE

insert into prosb (animal_s, defendant_name) values('cat','John');
ERROR: internal error: untrusted function not supported.
insert into prosb (animal_s, defendant_name) values('cat','Steven');
ERROR: internal error: untrusted function not supported.
insert into prosb (animal_s, defendant_name) values('dog','Mike');
ERROR: internal error: untrusted function not supported.

I tried using plpgsql instead of sql, but PG tells me the language isn't
registered.

Cheers,
Geoff,
