Maybe you should follow the directions given in the error message. They are fairly detailed. If you can't figure it out, you could ask for help on pgsql-general or pgsql-novice, but you're going to need to provide a lot more information about what you tried and what happened. In any event, this is neither a bug nor a security issue, so I don't think you should be sending it to these lists. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
