Thread: Vacuum in multi-statement
This used to work in 8.2: psql postgres -c "VACUUM table1; SELECT now()" But in cvs head it throws an error: ERROR: VACUUM cannot be executed from a function or multi-command string This must be because of the recent changes to PreventTransactionChain. Should we try to keep the old behavior for backwards-compatibility? The change will break some people's scripts, that's the way I noticed it. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com

It "worked" only for rather small values of "work". regards, tom lane
