PostgreSQL supports server-side large object operations for non-superusers. Functions that access the file system are restricted to superusers. > Can someone please give me a suggestion how can I solve this > problem.

That way you can make certain restricted functionality available to regular users. You should be careful and as restrictive as possible when writing such functions.
