Re: [HACKERS] Ocasional problems !!!!
I think i already discovered what's the problem !! At least the problem is not happening again. It was some problems in some triggers that are implementend in the database.

Re: [HACKERS] Ocasional problems !!!!
But i'm not making any compare. I just wrote delete from table; and i receive that message. Hmm. We will need to know more about your setup, since a simple delete from table; in psql does not involve *any* comparisons, and should never provoke the message you are receiving. Perhaps there is a foreign key constraint, or some such, being invoked by this command? regards, tom lane
