With debugging enable and tailing log/pgsql, here it is :
SELECT c.relname as "Name",
CASE c.relkind WHEN 'r' THEN 'table' WHEN 'v' THEN 'view' WHEN 'i'
THEN 'index' WHEN 'S' THEN 'sequence' WHEN 's' THEN 'special' END as
"Type",
u.usename as "Owner"
FROM pg_class c LEFT JOIN pg_user u ON c.relowner = u.usesysid
WHERE c.relkind IN ('r','v','S','')
AND c.relname !~ '^pg_'
ORDER BY 1;
To replicate, enable :
log_connections = true
debug_print_query = true
in your postgresql.conf file, then restart (reload) the server.
