OK, so I'm trying to make a rule with >1 action. The docs, not so helpfully, only seem to show a single action rule (at least in the rules section, not sure about elsewhere) The syntax diagram: CREATE RULE rule_name AS ON event TO object [WHERE rule_qualification] DO [INSTEAD] [action | (actions) | NOTHING]; seems to imply to me that >2 actions would look like this: create rule audit_test as on delete to ntest do ( insert into naudit(id,path) values (OLD.id, OLD.path); notify test; ) But no matter what flavor of syntax I throw at this, I get: syntax error at or near "insert" at character xxx So, what's the magic pixie dust I need to sprinkle on this to make it work? ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
