Have you done more to this table than TRUNCATE it? We recognized relatively recently that ALTER DROP COLUMN could drop the last/only variable-width column, in which case there is no longer any need for a TOAST table. The 8.0 code for CLUSTER/TRUNCATE copes with this possibility but 7.4 doesn't. I'm quite sure you couldn't get this error from anything except CLUSTER or TRUNCATE in 7.4 though. Seems like your client-side code is in error to be fingering a plain SELECT as the cause. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
