I have written a program where 2 computers are connected to the same database. The first PC executes an update statement and then sends a notification. This makes the second PC execute a select statement on the same table. The second PC then gets an error: 'Field "Fieldname" not found' I have no trouble executing this same select statement in other places in the code or from within PgAdmin. I wonder how this is possible as an update statement does not change anything to the tablefields. I added a delay (sleep) in the code and then the problem does not occur, but this is hardly a solution and makes me question the stability of other code as long as I am not certain why this occurs. I am fairly certain this has to do with locking. I assumed that the database would block the select statement while the table fields are not available. My hope is that someone can help me as I have searched for a solution for quite some time, but am no closer to finding it. Thanks! The program is written using Delphi 7 and PostgresDac 2.8.0 where I use the TPSQLQuery to execute the select and update statements and TPSQLNotify for the notification. My Postgresql version is 9.1. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Postgresql-error-tp5741971.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
