Re: pgagent

Hi,

1. The job it's a simple call to one stored function like that :
BEGIN
CALL other_user_name.get_function();
END;
Problem is that despite the fact that it's long passed by the scheduled
running time and I tried the "Run now" option (from pgadmin) a couple of
times, there is no evidence that the job actually runned ! Nothing in
pgagent log, main log or in pgagent.pga_joblog or pgagent.pga_jobsteplog.
Is there any way to trace of debug this ?

2. Yes, pg_cron also looks good and it's my second option if I can't make 1
to work.

Regards,
Gabi
