can anybody out there tell me why this query fails although PoPyDA is connected as postgres superuser ?

select * from pg_class

at now popy tries to dereference every oid thinking it is a large object. obviously that is not tru for oids of system tables... *grin* hope this helps, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research & Technology fog@mixadlive.com Debian GNU/Linux Developer & Italian Press Contact fog@debian.org Best friends are often failed lovers. -- Me
