This is the error: 2005-07-28 08:51:08 ERROR:
permission denied for sequence requests_req_num_seq
I've tried these grants, but no luck:
GRANT ALL ON FUNCTION nextval(integer) TO wwwrun,
postgres;
GRANT ALL ON FUNCTION nextval('requests_req_num_seq')
TO wwwrun, postgres;
GRANT ALL ON FUNCTION nextval() TO wwwrun, postgres;
