Re: postgres_fdw error

| List | pgsql-admin |
I am struggling with a FDW between two 9.4.3 postgres databases.
--
I am refering to the remote db as the source and the db with the fdw as the target.
The connected user has the ability to query the source table on the source db successfully so I am assuming all the required grants are there.
When querying from the target system, I get a "relation does not exist" error.
The hitch is that the source table is actually a view that calls other views, which in turn contain functions. When I used a basic table on the target the fdw worked without error.
config:
source:
select current_user;
current_user
--------------
piction_ro
(1 row)
piction_ro@bampfa_domain_bampfa> select count(*) from piction.bampfa_metadata_v;
count
-------
21309
(1 row)
target:

ERROR: relation "collectionobjects_common" does not exist

PL/pgSQL function utils.concat_artists(character varying) line 7 at SQL statement
But if we are on the source as the mapped user, we can select from the table in question:
piction_ro@bampfa_domain_bampfa> select * from collectionobjects_common limit 2;
-[ RECORD 1 ]------------------+-------------------------------------------------

...
We can also execute the function in the source view:
piction_ro@bampfa_domain_bampfa> select utils.concat_artists('foo');
-[ RECORD 1 ]--+-

\df+ utils.concat_artists

Any help would be much appreciated, I am thinking it could have something to do with the complexity of the base view, or perhaps fdw gets confused if the source is a view and not an actual table, but I would think the query should act just as the mapped user on the source system.
