[postgis-users] parse error - invalid geometry error

[Martin Davis]

Polygons need two levels of parenthesis, to allow for the external shell
and hole rings.  So the WKT should be:
 
POLYGON((2568262.1 5635344.1, 2568298.5 5635387.6, 2568261.04
5635276.15, 2568262.1 5635344.1))

	Hi,

	 

	I try to execute the following query on Postgis ver 1.0.4 . 

	 

	select asbinary('POLYGON(2568262.1 5635344.1, 2568298.5
5635387.6, 2568261.04 5635276.15, 2568262.1 5635344.1)'); 

	 

	But I get the following error; 

	ERROR:  parse error - invalid geometry 

	 

	Can anyone tell me what is wrong?

	 

	Best Regards

	Baris
