Hi list/Michael,
Sorry I forgot "reply to all"
It proved to be a problem with the permissions on the table and view! So, the
error that was reported was completely different from the actual error. I do
not know how this can happen, but by making a direct connection to the
database within Zope, I was able to get the real error message.
I will investigate further how the reporting of the messages got confused. It
could be a problem in Zope or in psycopg. If I find something interesting I
will report back to the list.
Thanks for the help.
Dick
