I am having a hard time selecting a Replication/Failover/HA solution for PGSQL. What is troubling is the number of solutions available in various states of development. Does the fact that dbmirror and rserv appear in the contrib directory, mean that they should be looked upon with more legitim

Olivier- The pg_hba.conf file controls how users connect to the database, but if the user does not have grants on the specific table within the database, I think you'd be getting an error similar to the one you describe. Does the user you created either have "dba" privileges or select access on th
