Hi Donald,
pgAdmin Version 1.4.2
1)
The syntax for the DROP RULE statement generated by pgAdmin is incorrect.
If you try to drop a rule you get the following error.
Actually it is correct, but only for PostgreSQL 7.3 - it seems the syntax was changed :-(. In the meantime, you can use the SQL
DROP RULE rul_setpasswd
to drop it manually.
2) Not a bug, more of a lacking feature: You can't create rules for views, this is a pain as the only way you can update, insert or delete on views is to create rules for them.
Yes, I'm aware of this missing feature - it's probably only going to be implemented in pgAdmin III, rather than pgAdmin II.
Regards, Dave.
