class="signature"> </div><divclass="signature">a 'bulk loading' routine using temporary tables suddenly failed during
testsfor no obvious reasons. At some point one of the updates on the temporary table fails with the error message

'ONCOMMIT DROP') with a fixed name are created and filled via insert first - followed by several updates. One of those

thetemporary table in question before the failing update - most likely the drop script. This also happens when in the
sametransaction. Additionally we used ON COMMIT DROP and DISCARD TEMP and DISCARD PLANS instead of dropping all
temporarytables. However, DISCARD TEMP obviously blocks the INSERT when within a transaction.</div><div

thebeginning of the load at the end seems to help or am I mistaken?</div><div class="signature"> </div><div
