What's changed and what's your intention?

See #17461. Somehow a user wrote the invalid SQL Date t::date but it was interpreted by our sqlparser as (Date 't')::date and resulting in evaluation error.

The root cause is upstream apache/datafusion-sqlparser-rs#235 support of HiveSQL where an unquoted identifier can be treated as a literal string value. It is never the case for PostgreSQL.

After the fix, we report the following error message:

dev=> select date t::date from generate_series('2024-01-01 00:00:00+00'::timestamptz, now(), interval '1 month') as s(t);
ERROR:  Failed to run the query

Caused by:
  sql parser error: expected end of statement, found: ::
LINE 1: select date t::date from generate_series('2024-01-01 00:00:00+00'::timestamptz, now(), interval '1 month') as s(t);
                     ^

which is similar to PostgreSQL:

test=# select date t::date from generate_series('2024-01-01 00:00:00+00'::timestamptz, now(), interval '1 month') as s(t);
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "::"
LINE 1: select date t::date from generate_series('2024-01-01 00:00:0...
                     ^
