It's hard to see how that could be anything except an operating-system bug. If we've been successfully writing on a file for awhile, there's no way that another write should trigger a permission error. Unless maybe they chose to report some sort of disk-quota-exceeded situation as EPERM, but even so that choice seems wrong to me. I'd suggest asking Sun^H^H^HOracle about this. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
