I have tried to put the schema name in front of the index name put i
still get the same error.

./reindexdb -e --index sc1.ind1 hermes
reindexdb: reindexing of index "sc1.ind1" in database "hermes" failed:
ERROR: relation "sc1.ind1" does not exist

If i use the command on an index in the public schema it works fine.
Which i guess relates to the search path that you mentioned in your
post...just dont understand why the above command doesnt work.

Thanks
