These are the best ones that I know of:

Even if you dislike these, please take a look at the safety checks for

and it is easy to do.

As I see it, Gentoo is one of the best ways to expose bugs in the build
system of any package, due to the high number of from-source builds
using various setups that Gentoo users perform. So I'd not say you'd be
adjusting pgsql to Gentoo, but you'd be fixing a bug in your build
system which Gentoo users have found and analyzed, but which might as
well hit other people building from source on their own.

So yes, Gentoo could address this at the distribution level, and as I
wrote on the Gentoo bug report, I hope they will do so soon. But the bug
is in the pgsql build system (and a bit in heimdal), so if you were to
apply one of the proposed fixes upstream, at least for future releases,
then more users could benefit.

I've thought of one more alternative: Move the detection of gssapi and
krb5 libraries to a place after strcat/strcpy have been detected.

Does the '/var/run/postgresql' directory exist and is it writeable by the
postgres user?  If it is not, I would say it's a bug for the packager of
this install of postgres.  Typically, postgres puts its lock / sockets in
'/tmp'.  You say linux, but don't say which linux, by your version string
(9.10) I'm guessing that this is ubuntu?

Mine is problem ID 7866382, if you'd like to add a note to yours
pointing out the duplication.

If this is biting you on a regular basis, one easy workaround would be
to add a dummy table or index to change the number of possible
completions.

RETURNS TABLE is just a shorthand for some OUT parameters.  I don't
believe it's either easy or a good idea to make it work differently
from every other function-argument-or-result case.

Re: [BUGS] Reset ACL to default for pg 8.0

2010-04-15 Thread Juan C. Aragon
Thanks Bruce for replying.

The ACL is display in the PgAdmin tool for Windows on the properties for a
table or function. ACL is the Privileges. By default, when you create a new
function or table, the ACL is null. However, if you add some privileges, and
then remove all, the ACL is not longer null, it displays the brackets {}.

I just need to know if the brackets are normal when all the privileges are
remove. Or how to reset the privileges (ACL) to default (null).

Thanks,

Juan C. Aragon

Well, if I create a table and look at pg_dump,  I see:

ALTER TABLE public.test OWNER TO postgres;

and the owner has permissions by default on the table.  Perhaps you want
to revoke owner permissions on the table.

Where are you seeing this ACL?

I don't know now. It minimally have to be documented

foodmart=# create function f() returns table (a varchar(10), b
varchar(20)) as $$values('Pavel','Stehule')$$ language sql;
CREATE FUNCTION
Time: 121,506 ms
foodmart=# select * from f();
   a   |b
---+-
 Pavel | Stehule
(1 row)

Time: 0,718 ms
foodmart=# create table x as select * from f();
SELECT
Time: 105,357 ms
foodmart=# \d x
Table "public.x"
 Column |   Type| Modifiers
+---+---
 a  | character varying |
 b  | character varying |

workaround is relative simple

foodmart=# create function f() returns table (a varchar(10), b
varchar(20)) as $$values('Pavel','Stehule')$$ language sql;
CREATE FUNCTION
Time: 1,009 ms
foodmart=# create table x as select a::varchar(20), b::varchar(20)
from (select * from f()) x ;

Re: [BUGS] BUG #5418: psql exits after using tab-completion with error message

2010-04-15 Thread Ben Madin
Thanks Tom,

I also reported it to Apple, but without this information, so I hope they get 
the sense that it might be important enough to look at, especially if there is 
already a fix known.

I also contacted William Kyngesbury, and he was sympathetic (but had never had 
the problem himself, but neither does he use the tab-completion), but would 
rather Apple fixed it because his GIS software suite is very based on using 
Apple OSX frameworks where they exist.

cheers

Ben

This is because you're restoring into the same database that you backed up
from.  I recommend creating a new database 'suresha_new'

 Then, restore into that new database.  Once you've restored, you can:


  ALTER DATABASE suresha RENAME TO suresha_orig;

  ALTER DATABASE suresha_new RENAME TO suresha;

Re: [BUGS] BUG #5424: Not able to Install

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:  5424
Logged by:  Aditya Vats
Email address:  aditya.v...@cerner.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.4.2-1
Operating system:   Windows Vista
Description:Not able to Install
Details:

While installing I am getting an error saying :

The password specified was incorrect.Please enter the correct password for
the postgress windows user account.


If you installed PostgreSQL before, you set a password then. You need to 
enter that password. If you only have 8.4 installed, ie you don't have 
any other PostgreSQL versions installed, then it's safe to reset the 
password for the postgres user account.


It's also possible that due to a recently-discovered installer bug, if 
you mis-typed the password the first time it stored it anyway and *then* 
told you the passwords didn't match, in which case you'll probably have 
to reset the password.


Unfortunately the PostgreSQL installer doesn't offer you any way to 
reset the password from within the installer.


You can reset it using the standard windows tools. You should be able to 
find Computer Management in the Start menu, under All Programs -> 
Administrative Tools. If not, open up the Control Panel, switch it to 
classic view, open Administrative Tools, then Computer Management.


Within Computer Management open up Local Users and Groups, then "Users". 
You'll see the postgres account there and can reset its password if 
required.

I can reproduce your reported behavior in psql, which I admit is odd:

test=> create table test(x int);
CREATE TABLE
test=> \pset null '(null)'
Null display is "(null)".
test=> grant all on test to postgres;
GRANT
test=> revoke all on test from postgres;
REVOKE
test=> select relacl from pg_class where relname = 'test';
 relacl

 {}
(1 row)

Community, do we want to make a permission reset cause the column to
become null?

They are the same.

How did you perform your install? (I think you're running Ubuntu 9.10).

That's not a permission reset.

Nope, they're not.  NULL implies the built-in-default permissions, which
are quite different from the empty set.
