Thread: [GENERAL] nodeRead ERROR.
Dear all, I have a very long table (i.e. has a lot of columns). I created a couple of views on this table. They created fine. \d <view_name> yields the expected results. However, if I actually perform a select I get: select * from test; ERROR: nodeRead: Bad type 0 Furthermore, if I try to drop the views, I get the same error message (and the views aren't deleted). Anybody experienced this problem (I have 6.3.2 under IRIX 5.3) or knows of a way to get rid of these views? please cc to me as I'm not always up-to-date in my news-reading! Many thanks, Stuart. +-------------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Stuart Rison | Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research | | Tel. (0171) 878 4041 | Courtauld Building | | Fax.

My guess is that the view is overflowing the 8k limit. 6.4 should allow for larger block sizes. > Dear all, > > I have a very long table (i.e. has a lot of columns).

NO! Trying to drop the view yields the same message! v. strange.
