In the folllowing check (copy.c:DoCopy() ), I *think* that the check for the is_from flag is mistakenly negated. is_from means -> from file to database, therefore we should check for <XactReadOnly && is_from>, and not <XactReadOnly && !is_from>. The current code allows loading and disallows reading in read-only. /* check read-only transaction */ if (XactReadOnly && !is_from && !isTempNamespace(RelationGetNamespace(cstate->rel))) ereport(ERROR, (errcode(ERRCODE_READ_ONLY_SQL_TRANSACTION), errmsg("transaction is read-only")));
