[postgis-users] attempt to deserialize a point which is really a Invalid type

[Ricardo Peironcely]

Hello all!

I've a problem, when I try to calculate a distance:

SELECT name, distance_spheroid(location, 'SRID=3395;POINT(-3.6620213
40.4475235)', 'SPHEROID["WGS 84",6378137,298.257223563]')  as distance
FROM ways

receive an error :

ERROR: lwpoint_deserialize: attempt to deserialize a point which is
really a Invalid type
Estado SQL:XX000

What is the problem? Google doesn't says anything about this error.
