[postgis-devel] [postgis-users] ERROR: geometry contains non-closed rings

[Paul Ramsey]

I think you're going to have to write a little routine to close your
rings... it looks like the WKB emitter is hard-coded to error out when
asked to serialize broken things (hm???? I thought this was changed,
the neverending story...)

You can patch it your self by changing this line

http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/browser/tags/1.5.3/postgis/lwgeom_inout.c#L307

from PARSER_CHECK_ALL to PARSER_CHECK_NONE
