Обсуждение: lo_import

Hi I am using postgres 7.3 in macos X and i am not able to insert a
file into a table all i see is the following error

insert into archivo (d_id,path) values (1,
lo_import('/Users/allende/Documents/PDF/Networks/10356399.pdf'));

ERROR:  lo_import: can't open unix file
"/Users/allende/Documents/PDF/Networks/10356399.pdf": Permission denied


I have done it as a regular user and as postgres user and still does
not work.

Any clue, please

But does the user the postmaster runs as have permission to read that file? I
would guess not. If you've looked at the file permissions and think it can then
also check the permissions on the directories leading to that file.

Touche, the directory Documents did not have permissions.
