hi, i'm running an update procedure on a table with approximately 100,000 records. The problem is the procedure is running endlessly even when the update is very simple like in the following example:
update mytable set client_id = 1 where mytable_id = 1 mytable_id is the primary key of mytable. the process under which the update is running reports among the usual process data "UPDATE waiting". I'm using PostgreSQL 7.3.4 on SuSE 9.0. From what I have seen it doesn't look like that the host computer has problem with the resources. Any idea why is this happening? thanks, dimitar ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
