RelationBuildRuleLock is concerned with reading the rule information for a table; specifically, it's evidently trying to read the rules for v_psl_package_info. I suspect some form of data corruption in the pg_rewrite row(s) for this table. Do you see any misbehavior when you do select * from pg_rewrite where ev_class = 'v_psl_package_info'::regclass In particular, are any of the columns NULL in these rows? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
