The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2532 Logged by: Tiziano Tissino Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.4 Operating system: Linux (Ubuntu Dapper) Description: os.chdir call in plpython function doesn't work Details:
I have a function like the following one: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.test() RETURNS int4 AS $BODY$ from os import chdir chdir('/tmp') test=plpy.execute('SELECT int_field FROM table1;')[0]['int_field'] return test $BODY$ LANGUAGE 'plpythonu' VOLATILE; when calling it, I get an error like this one: db=# select test(); WARNING: plpython: in function test: DETAIL: plpy.SPIError: Unknown error in PLy_spi_execute_query ERROR: could not open relation 1663/16737/18906: No such file or directory CONTEXT: SQL statement "SELECT int_field FROM table1;" The same function, without the row "chdir('/tmp')", works fine. I just upgraded to 8.1.4; with previous db version (8.0), that function worked fine as well. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
