Thnaks in advance for your help. > Najm Normally, the cache lookup error means you've done something like: create table create view on table drop table re-create table (perhaps slightly different) select * from view since the view calls the table by oid, not by name, it can't find the original table it uses. for you, it sounds like create function create table-that-uses-function-somehow drop function re-create function insert into table Are there triggers on your table? Or rules? (Both of these might refer to functions that might have been changed.) Or, perhaps you have constraints on your table that call a function that you've re- created. If you have a backup of your database (ie pg_dumpall), you can grep this file for 24011. This should be the original oid of the function that is lost.

Re: [SQL] Cache lookup failure
Do you have any triggers, rules or check constraints defined on the table? If so, you may have fallen pray to the thing that you cannot drop and re-create a function that's used in a trigger without recreating the trigger as well.

[SQL] Subselect in join?
Ok- Seems I've seen this somewhere, but can't seem to get it to work. Is my memory flawed, or is this just not an implemented feature?

[SQL] delete rows
Hello All, After trying for two weeks to delete more than one row at the time from a form - checkbox input, I was told that the only way different rows would be inputed or changed with the information from the form would be with the INSERT command. This way the best alternative I could think of, would be to still have my table cart: For eaxmple: session_id|range_id|colour_id| -- 122 | 4004-4 | 4002 122 | 4004-4 | 4003 122 | 4004-4 | 4004 which contains all the items added to the cart. Then when a deletion is required, the information from the form would be inserted into "cartchange table": For example: session_id| colour_id|condition| - 122 | 4001 | yes 122 | 4002 | yes Now what I am trying to do is to delete the rows from cart that appear in the cartchange table. I have tried to join the tables , but I could not find the right query to delete similar rows. Am I missing something here ? Any help will be extremely appreciated. :) Astrid

Would a subselect work here? something like... delete from cart where exists (select * from cartchange where cartchange.session_id=cart.session_id and cartchange.colour_id=cart.colourid);

[SQL] Rules with Conditions: Bug, or Misunderstanding
Am I misunderstanding how to use rule w/conditionals, or is there a bug in this? -- I love to use Pgsql comments, but find the 'comment on field...' language a bit of a pain for documenting a large database at the last minute. So, I wrote a query that pulls together all the fields in a database, w/descriptions (if any): create view dev_col_comments as select a.oid as att_oid, relname, attname, description from pg_class c, pg_attribute a left outer join pg_description d on d.objoid=a.oid where c.oid=a.attrelid and (c.relkind='r' or c.relkind='v') and c.relname !~ '^pg_' and attname not in ('xmax','xmin','cmax','cmin','ctid','oid','tableoid') order by relname, attname; [This uses pg7.1 syntax; you could rewrite for 7.0 w/o the 'v' for views, and using a union rather than outer join.] This works great. Feeling clever, I wrote two rules, so I could update this and create comments. I need two rules, one if this is an existing description (becoming an update to pg_description), one if this not (becoming an insert to pg_description). create rule dev_ins as on update to dev_col_comments where old.description isnull do instead insert into pg_description ( objoid, description) values (old.att_oid, new.description); create rule dev_upd as on update to dev_col_comments where old.description notnull do instead update pg_description set description=new.description where objoid=old.att_oid; This doesn't work: I get a "cannot update view w/o rule" error message, both for fields where description was null, and for fields where it wasn't null. If I take out the "where old.description isnull" clause of dev_ins, it works fine--but, only, of course, if I am sure to only pick new descriptions. Or, if I take out the clause in dev_upd, it works too, with the opposite caveat. Is this a bug? Am I misunderstanding something about the way that rule conditions should work? The docs are long but fuzzy on rules (they seem to suggest, for instance, that "create rule foo on update to table.column" will work, when this is not implemented yet, so perhaps the docs are ahead of the implementation?) Any help would be great! I do read the pgsql lists, but always appreciate a cc, so I don't miss any comments. TIA.

Hm. Perhaps the "cannot update view" test is too strict --- it's not bright enough to realize that the two rules together cover all cases, so it complains that you *might* be trying to update the view. As the code stands, you must provide an unconditional DO INSTEAD rule to implement insertion or update of a view. I'm not sure this is a big problem, though, because the solution is simple: provide an unconditional rule with multiple actions. For example, I think this will work: create rule dev_upd as on update to dev_col_comments do instead ( insert into pg_description (objoid, description) select old.att_oid, new.description WHERE old.description isnull; update pg_description set description=new.description where objoid = old.att_oid; ) but I haven't tried it... regards, tom lane
