Title: Re: [GENERAL] Delete Problem
even i have seen this problem
 
i am using postgres 8.0.0
 
i open psql <dbname>
 
and there i try to do
delete from <tab1>
 
it seems that psql gets stuck.
 
even after 5 mins or something, no deletion happens.
 
generally this happens when the disk is nearing to full
 
cant this be avoided, why does postgres hang.
 
thanks,
regards
Surabhi

What do you mean by "refresh the found set"?  What client interface
are you using?  Might the deleting transaction not be committing?
What happens if you do the delete using psql?  What version of
PostgreSQL are you running?
