It narrows the window for failure by doing a SearchSysCacheExists test before relation_open, but there's still a window for failure. The rel in question is most likely a temp rel of another backend, because sanity_check is running by itself and so there shouldn't be anything else happening except perhaps some other session's post-disconnect cleanup. Maybe we could put the check for "is this a temp rel of another relation" into the initial list-making step instead of waiting till after relation_open. That doesn't seem to solve the general problem though. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
