Hi Alex,

i assume that you refer to the version 1 of the internal DB API, as you 
mentioned sqlops. Maybe the internal function of postgres return some status 
that previously were only emitted in an error condition. 

Can you share some more details what exactly is not working for you? Do you 
get an error message or something like this?

Viele Grüße,
