ID: 40173 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: denis at edistar dot com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: PostgreSQL related Operating System: Linux kernel 2.6.17 PHP Version: 5.2.0 New Comment: Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates all necessary tables, stored procedures etc. Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

So, if we have two postgres users (userA and userB for example) with two authorization schemas (that have the same name userA and userB) and in each schema we have a table with the same name but with different definition, we can access only one of the two tables... Also pg_metadata does not accept passing the table with a namespace attached (for exampl userA.mytable) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40173&edit=1
