[pgrouting-users] Working with the functions SHORTEST_PATH

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Paul, this is a very small table, it might help if you pg_dump of the 
tables in plain format and posted them to the list. That way people and 
install them and try it on their systems ans analyze the tables to see 
if they are built correctly based on your explanation.

Thanks,
