Send a SIGINT to the backend process running that query, eg kill -INT This has the same effect as a user-requested cancel (eg ^C in psql). regards, tom lane ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html

Re: [ADMIN] how to cancel a query ?
If you wanted to do something programatically, couldn't you define some functions that would allow you say implement a query id, and embed a function call in the where clause like select getNextQueryId() where .. and queryStillActive(query_id) = true Then another function could be called to kill the query either from within the program, or externally like stopQuery(query_id). You probably wouldn't want to do this for every query, but if you know you have some potentially long running queries, then Eric > -Original Message- > From: Andreas Schmitz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 7:51 AM > To: Tom Lane; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [ADMIN] how to cancel a query ? > > > On Wednesday 04 December 2002 17:47, Tom Lane wrote: > > Andreas Schmitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > ist there any way to cancel a user query as dba ? > > > > Send a SIGINT to the backend process running that query, eg > > > > kill -INT > > > > This has the same effect as a user-requested cancel (eg ^C in psql). > > > > What about an implementation into the command structure ? > > regards > > -andreas > > -- > Andreas Schmitz - Phone +49 201 8501 318 > Cityweb-Technik-Service-Gesellschaft mbH > Friedrichstr. 12 - Fax +49 201 8501 104 > 45128 Essen - email [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > ---(end of > broadcast)--- > TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate > subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your > message can get through to the mailing list cleanly > ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org

Libpq has: PQrequestCancel() Where else did you want it? -- Bruce Momjian| http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup.| Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
Re: [ADMIN] how to cancel a query ?
I was asking on the pyPgSQL list whether the PQrequestCancel() would allow that if a user submitting queries from Python closed the Python shell, the query would be cancelled (a la ^C in psql). This led me to: If the connection from which a synchronous query ("libpq->connection.query()") was submitted is closed, should libpq assume a PQrequesCancel() and cancel the query at the same time? Isn't this the analog of ^C in psql?
