On the Python end, you have to call psycopg2 connection.poll() method periodically or in response to select() activation, and check the connection.notifies list. Note that this list can grow even when you run other queries -- not just on poll. There's an example here: http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/advanced.html#async-notify Regards, Marti -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
