I have just upgraded to 8.0.1 from 7.4.6 and now my triggers doesn't work. When I insert a row in a table that has an insert trigger, I get the following error msg:

ERROR:  INSERT is not allowed in a non-volatile function


What does this mean?


That is highly documented in the PGSQL 8.0 documentation. That exactly means that a function that is not VOLATILE (such as STABLE, IMMUTABLE) can't make any changes in tables (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE). For such operations, it MUST be VOLATILE. So, re-create (or REPLACE) your functions, that do make any changes in tables with VOLATILE option set up.
