Collapse
Posted by Dayra Munoz on
Hi firends:

I have OpenACS 4.0 with AOLServer 3.2 and PostgreSQL 7.3.1. over
Linux 7.2.

When i use acs__add_user( ...) function for create account in OpenACS
(from promt to database), these messages apears.. but whea i test the
account for registered, it worked succesfull (of course, OpenACS said
that reseat the password but it is normal)

Have i to worry me for these messages?

to "acs_object__initialize_attribut"
psql:crear.sql:1: NOTICE:  Adding missing FROM-clause entry for

Postgres is telling you two things:

1. Some of the identifiers are longer than 32 characters so they're truncated.  We use the long names for readability and you can ignore these NOTICEs.

2. Postgres doesn't require the FROM clause in select queries, but issues a NOTICE when we make use of the feature because it is not standard SQL.  You can ignore this NOTICE, too.
