Обсуждение: no privileges were granted

Hi,

When I try to grant execution permissions of a function to a role,
PostgreSQL warns that "no privileges were granted"
(backend/catalog/aclchk.c:221).

test_1_5_0_0=> \df+ emove.emove_outgoingmessages_delete_for_commsrv

test_1_5_0_0=> GRANT EXECUTE ON FUNCTION emove.emove_outgoingmessages_delete_for_commsrv() TO emove;
WARNING:  no privileges were granted for "emove_outgoingmessages_delete_for_commsrv"
GRANT

Does anybody have an idea about what might be causing the problem? By
the way, is there any (preferably psql) shortcut to list permissions of
a function?


Regards.

What this means is that the user doing the GRANT doesn't actually have
permissions to do it.  (Yeah, the message pretty much sucks, but the
behavior is mandated by SQL spec.)

Most likely, you aren't the owner of the function.
