Обсуждение: error moving table to tablespace (8.0 beta win32 )
Hi! just playing with tablespaces... - moved a existing table to a new tablespace - tried to move it back to default tablespace (ALTER TABLE accounts SET TABLESPACE pg_default;) Got the following error in logfile: ERROR: could not create relation 1663/317186/317191: Permission denied Any suggestions? Best regards, Christian

are you able to create new tables in the default tablespace ? looks

It seems awfully odd though that you can create tables in that tablespace to begin with but can't move them there. I'm cc'ing this to the pgsql-hackers-win32 to see if anyone there has a clue ... regards, tom lane > Here what i tried: > CREATE TABLE test (name varchar(100)); > CREATE TABLE > CREATE TABLESPACE test LOCATION 'C:\\tmp\\ts_test'; > CREATE TABLESPACE > \db > List of tablespaces > Name | Owner | Location > ------------+----------+---------------- > pg_default | postgres | > pg_global | postgres | > test | postgres | C:/tmp/ts_test > (3 rows) > ALTER TABLE test SET TABLESPACE test; > ALTER TABLE > \d+ test > Table "public.test" > Column | Type | Modifiers | Description > --------+------------------------+-----------+------------- > name | character varying(100) | | > Contains OIDs: yes > Tablespace: "test" > ALTER TABLE test SET TABLESPACE pg_default; > ERROR: could not create relation 1663/317186/1317654: Permission denied > select version(); > version > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > PostgreSQL 8.0.0beta1 on i686-pc-mingw32, compiled by GCC gcc.exe > (GCC) 3.2.3 (mingw special 20030504-1) > (1 row)

I'm cc'ing this to the pgsql-hackers-win32 to see if anyone > there has a clue ... I just reproduced this on win32. The file already exists, and is locked. Apparently, in this case it's the very same backend that's locking the file; closing the connection that was used to move the table into the other tablespace will remove the file immediately.

Oh, I'll bet it's the original copy of the table that hasn't been removed yet. We may have an issue with SET TABLESPACE failing to close the old file, so it can't be deleted yet on Windows ... regards, tom lane
