[GENERAL] COPY fails to read source file
Hello all: Using 6.5.3, SuSE 6.4, logged in as 'billb'. Here are 2 instances of the COPY command; - copy custprofile from '/home/billb/custpr.txt' using delimiters ';'; The result is: ERROR: COPY command, running in backend with with effective uid 26, could not open '/home/billb/custpr.txt' for reading. Errno = Permission denied (13). The file looks like -rw-r--r-- 1 billb users 58902 May 16 11:45 /home/billb/custpr.txt copy custprofile from '/mnt/DOS_C/sybase/custpr.txt' using delimiters ';'; The result is: COPY The file looks like -rwxr-xr-x 1 rootroot 58902 May 16 11.56 /mnt/DOS_C/sybase/custpr.txt --- The second instance gave me the results I wanted, but why did the first instance fail? If anything, I would have expected permission denied on the root owner. I have had the same results on other ocassions. What am I missing?
