Hi,

I want to use python modules I have written in plpythonu. I can load these modules in functions within postgres if they are installed in the "official" python module directories (e.g. /blah/site-packages etc.)

However, I want to use modules which are in my home file space, but I can't get this to work.

Does user "postgres" have access to your home directory?

Sorry, yes, I forgot to mention I've checked it's not just a permissions problem by putting the module in /tmp, readable by everyone, and appending "/tmp" to sys.path in the function in the database. Still complains that the module can't be found though :(

(If I fire up python as user postgres, I can import the module from /tmp.)

Arrgh - apologies, I've just realised SELinux was the problem!

Sorry to answer my own query - but thanks for your mail Richard, which set me on the right track again!

regards,

Korin
