John Puster (jpuster@acymtech.com) reports a bug with a severity of 2
The lower the number the more severe it is.
Short Description
Receiving "No such file or directory" error from the database
Long Description
While setting up the sourceforge package (which requires an installation of PostgreSQL 7.1), a script created a
temporarytable called user_metric_tmp1_1. This table is impossible to browse, alter, or drop. All said actions on
thistable result in the following error message: "ERROR: cannot open user_metric_tmp1_1: No such file or directory"
I have done an strace on this query given from the command line, and it does not appear to be actually trying to access
thisfile anywhere, even if it were to exist somewhere.
There does not seem to be anything unusual about the table. Unfortuneatly, I am unsure what query created or last
modifiedthis table.
The machine is an Intel Pentium III running Redhat Linux 6.2 (kernel 2.2.14), PostgreSQL 7.1 beta 4, egcs ver. 2.91.66
Sample Code
