Hi,
Nah, I don't think that theory holds water...
[tsakai@vixen ~]$ psql canon gjoslyn
Password for user gjoslyn:
Welcome to psql 8.3.6, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

(1 row)
-- as far as the table is concerned, it is readable
-- let me reproduce the error
canon=> select * from gallo.unlinkcol1 limit 4;
ERROR: permission denied for schema gallo
I just feel that this is similar to a common unix file access
problem in that the file itself is readable, but one or more
directories in the path is not giving search permission. If
I read the error with such in mind, it makes more sense.
\z command wouldn't let me look at the permission of the schema:
canon=# \z gallo
Access privileges for database "canon"
Schema | Name | Type | Access privileges

What can I do?
Hi,
sure that does not work because the user gjoslyn from the group galloan
is not allowed to use the schema gallo ...
GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA gallo to galloan;
will help ...
Cheers

Hi,
Maybe I found the underlying problem...
too psql, I typed:
canon=# \dn gallo
and it told me:
List of schemas
Name | Owner
-------+-------
gallo | ysu
(1 row)
Maybe the supersuer postgres is unable to grant select
on that table... But it told me it did.
>> canon=# grant select on gallo.unlinkcol1 to galloan;
>> GRANT
It doesn't make sense... I am confused.

Hi Andy,
Thank you for your walk through.
Here's what I did, emulating your guidance and spirit:
-- about to create a new role
canon=# create role galloan;
CREATE ROLE
canon=#
canon=# \dg galloan
List of roles
Role name | Superuser | Create role | Create DB | Connections | Member of
-----------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-------------+-----------
galloan | no | no | no | no limit | {}
(1 row)
-- grant a particular select on this role
canon=# grant select on gallo.unlinkcol1 to galloan;
GRANT
-- put a user/role into galloan group/role
canon=# grant galloan to gjoslyn;
GRANT ROLE
canon=#
canon=# \dg gjoslyn
List of roles
Role name | Superuser | Create role | Create DB | Connections |
Member of
-----------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-------------+------------------
gjoslyn | no | no | no | no limit |
{wetlab,galloan}
(1 row)
--now test it as user gjoslyn

Any hints, poiters are appreciated.

Hi Tena,
-- your user role
roletest=# CREATE ROLE tena LOGIN;
CREATE ROLE
-- a group role
roletest=# CREATE ROLE musicians;
CREATE ROLE
-- put tena 'in' the group role
roletest=# GRANT musicians to tena;
GRANT ROLE
-- connect to roletest a user tena
roletest=# \c roletest tena
You are now connected to database "roletest" as user "tena".
roletest=> select * from test;
ERROR: permission denied for relation test
STATEMENT: select * from test;
ERROR: permission denied for relation test
-- grant SELECT right as superuser in roletest
roletest=> \c roletest postgres
You are now connected to database "roletest" as user "postgres".
roletest=# GRANT SELECT on test to musicians;
GRANT
roletest=# \c roletest tena
You are now connected to database "roletest" as user "tena".
roletest=> SELECT * FROM test;
id | value
----+-------
(0 rows)
Cheers
