ESET NOD32 Antivirus interference with PostgreSQL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Just wanted to give a heads up to anyone who might be having a similar problem. We had an installation on a customer machine that had the AV product "ESET NOD32" installed. We quickly started having problems when there were two or more concurrent queries against the same tables in PostgreSQL v8.2.21 (over multiple connections via JDBC). Specifically we were getting errors like:

ERROR: could not open relation 1663/27267/27472: Permission denied

We checked the file permissions (which checked out), we used sysinternals tools to monitor the file system to make sure the file permsisions werent being changed by the backup software running on the system (they weren't), and finally uninstalled the "ESET NOD32" AV software. We have been running without issue now that the AV software has been uninstalled. The filters they use are apparently not very happy with the multi-process, highly-concurrent nature of PostgeSQL.

Thought this might be of help to anyone else out there who comes across this AV software during deployment and starts encountering strange behavior.
