In person table there is ofcourse person with id=569.
User is super user and I did GRANT ALL on ALL TABLES :
public | article_reviewers | table | {control=r/control,balcer=arwdRxt/control} public | articles | table | {control=r/control,balcer=arwdRxt/control} public | persons | table | {control=r/control,balcer=arwdRxt/control}

I don't see table "reviewers" in this list, which is the table the error statement mentions.


public | reviewers | table | {control=r/control,balcer=arwdRxt/control} I'am serching archives for an clear answer right now, but if any of you would have time to explain
what I did wrong it would be helpful :)

I'm guessing you are running as user "control" with only read permissions for table "reviewers". If you look at the error message...

ERROR:  permission denied for relation reviewers
KONTEKST: SQL statement "SELECT 1 FROM ONLY "public"."reviewers" x WHERE "person_id" = $1 FOR UPDATE OF x"

This is the foreign-key check. In versions before 8.1 this was handled by taking a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE lock which means you need the "UPDATE" permission too. To quote the manuals:

"UPDATE
Allows UPDATE of any column of the specified table. SELECT ... FOR UPDATE also requires this privilege (besides the SELECT privilege). For sequences, this privilege allows the use of the nextval and setval functions."
