Hi there,

not being an expert for Postgresā€¦. I have a Postgis table with the countries of 
the world. Now, I would like to drop it. I got the error message:

     ERROR:  out of shared memory
     HINT:  You might need to increase max_locks_per_transaction.

and thought that it would be easier to drop first all rows, and then drop the 
empty table.

But it seems that it has a problem with dropping the index:

      DROP INDEX gis.countries_uid;

actually generates that error message.

So, do I need to dig now into the postgres config file? It seems strange to me 
that Postgres has a problem deleting an empty table, though.

Thanks for any hints.
