[postgis] Problem with query.

[Petri J. Riipinen]

Hi folks,

I'm trying to execute this kind of query:
--------------------
SELECT GID, AsText(the_geom) AS geom, cityname
FROM cities
WHERE the_geom && GeometryFromText('BOX3D(3330000 6826000, 3331000 
6827000)',-1);
--------------------

And this is what I get in response:
-------------------------------------
ERROR: couldnt parse objects in GEOMETRY
-------------------------------------

Otherwise I can do queries into that table just fine.

What could be wrong? I can't see any significant difference with the 
example query shown in PostGIS docs.

- Petri

PS. The 'cities'-table was originally imported to PostgreSQL with the 
shp2pgsql-program from PostGIS.
