Thread: bug in pg_dump with GRANT/REVOKE

bug in pg_dump with GRANT/REVOKE

From
Robert Forsman
Date:
I'm running postgres 6.5.3 and 7.0.3 and pg_dump gives me the following
output:

DROP TABLE "genrenametable";
CREATE TABLE "genrenametable" (       "genreid" int4,       "name" character varying(128),       "parentgenre" int4,
  "enabled" bool DEFAULT 'f' NOT NULL
 
);
REVOKE ALL on "genrenametable" from PUBLIC;
GRANT SELECT on "genrenametable" to "hammor";
GRANT SELECT on "genrenametable" to "johnbr";
COPY "genrenametable" FROM stdin;
4115    80s Alt Hits    4096    t
4138    New Wave Hits   4096    t
4117    90s Alt Hits    4096    t
...
 As you can guess, this will not successfully restore the table.
 Perhaps the REVOKE/GRANT statements can be moved to after the COPY. 
 The fancy solution would be to make sure the table owner has
permissions to do the COPY, and then revoke the permissions afterward if
necessary.

The only interesting thing I noticed is how fast it crashes my
Netscape-4.76 browser ;)

Yours too?  I turned off Java/Javascript to get it to load and I am on
BSD/OS.  Strange it so univerally crashes.

I think there is really something weird about the Zend site - I use the
current IE on an NT machine, and every page loads, but then I have to wait
about 10 additional seconds before IE "wakes up" and I can click any links
or go to a different page.

I think it may have something to do with the DHTML menus... but I haven't
really looked into it.

Use Konqueror :-)

I can't tell if the results are biased, but it puts PostgreSQL way ahead of 
MySQL and Interchange in performance (if more than a couple of simultaneous 
users) and most other features.
Only bad words are about lack of LO support.

Interesting.  I run Opera and I generally find it fails on pages that no
one else has problems with but it didn't have any problem with this one.

Really odd.  I have Java/Javascript with FreeBSD and Netscape 4.76 and
read it just fine.  One difference tho probably, I keep style sheets
shut off.  Netscape crashes about 1% as often as it used to.

I can confirm turning off stylesheets fixed the crash on my system too. 
Vince, what disadvantages are there to keep stylesheets off?

Text placement and colors on some sites gets a bit out of whack.  Datek's
website has text on top of other text, but still works.  I trashed the
style sheets on the PostgreSQL website long ago and never used them on
other sites I write.

This is getting off-topic, but ... 

I keep CSS, Javascript, Java, dynamic fonts, and images turned off, and
Netscape 4.77 stays up for many weeks at a time.  I also have no Flash 
plugin.  All together it makes for a far more pleasant web experience.

I didn't notice any problem with the Zend page.

You are running no images!  You may as well have Netscape minimized and
say it is running for weeks.  :-)

Over 98% of the images on the web are either pr0n or wankage.  
If you don't need to see that, you can save a lot of time.

But it's usually Javascript that crashes Netscape.  (CSS appears to
be implemented using Javascript, because if you turn off Javascript,
then CSS stops working (and crashing).) That's not to say that Java 
doesn't also crash Netscape; it's just that pages with Java in them 
are not very common.

There's little point in bookmarking a site that depends on client-side
Javascript or Java, because it won't be up for very long.

But this is *really* off topic, now.
