Re: table not shown

Hi Duane,

It seems it is not:

mxl=# show search_path;

search_path

--------------

$user,public

(1 row)

mxl=# select current_schema(), current_user;

current_schema | current_user

----------------+--------------

public | postgres

(1 row)

mxl=# select * from pg_class where relname = 'mxl_quar_process'; select
* from mxl_quar_process limit 1;

relname | relnamespace | reltype | relowner | relam | relfilenode |
relpages | reltuples | reltoastrelid | reltoastidxid | relhasindex |
relisshared | relkind | relnatts | relchecks | reltriggers | relukeys |
relfkeys | relrefs | relhasoids | relhaspkey | relhasrules |
relhassubclass | relacl

Also, when I do:

pg_dump -U postgres -f 615.dump

Password:

pg_dump: invalid adnum value 5 for table mxl_user_wbl

mxl=# \d mxl_user_wbl

Table "public.mxl_user_wbl"

Column | Type | Modifiers

---------+--------------------------+-----------------------------------
-----------------

user_id | integer | not null

sender | character varying(128) | not null

action | integer |

created | timestamp with time zone | default
('now'::text)::timestamp(6) with time zone

Indexes: mxl_user_wbl_pkey primary key btree (user_wbl_id),

mxl_user_wbl_uid_action_idx btree (user_id, "action")

Foreign Key constraints: mxl_user_wbl_uid_fkey FOREIGN KEY (user_id)
REFERENCES mxl_user(user_id) ON UPDATE NO ACTION ON DELETE CASCADE

Triggers: mxl_user_wbl_u_trg

I know mxl_user_wbl is not same as mxl_quar_process, but this pg_dump
error causes our

production database backup failed!

Please help!

Thank you!

Could this be a schema issue?

You could not possibly be selecting from it if it's not in pg_class.
I expect this is pilot error on your part, but there's not enough info
here to guess just what. Could you show exact examples of a successful
select, the other inquiries you tried, and exactly what you got from
them?
