Folks, I have several functions in a 7.2.4 database that I accidentally REPLACEd while logged in as the superuser, instead of the db owner. As a result, the db owner can no longer modify those functions -- they belong to the superuser.
As this is a production database, I can't drop the functions and re-create them as a different user ... the interruption in service would not be acceptable. I was wondering whether there were any problems with either of the following methods: A) Updating the pg_proc table to change the function owner; B) Making the db_owner a superuser, replacing the functions, and then making the db_owner a non-superuser again. BTW, is there a neater method to deal with this in 7.4? 7.2 and 7.3 have ALTER TABLE ... CHANGE OWNER, but other types of objects don't seem to have a CHANGE OWNER option. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
