Alex,
Could you supply me a bit more information about your setup?
And for anyone with a bit more knowledge of the db_postgres module:
I've been testing a lot now and really have an issue with the receiving
an incorrect resultset.
I think I finally have found what's really going wrong.
The permissions module forks into several threads, and then every thread
is requesting "select table_version from version where
table_name='trusted'".
But all threads do this on the same database connection.
And I see that sometimes thread A sends the query, then thread B sends
the query, on the same database connection.
Then thread B is reading the the resultset, and then thread A is reading
the resultset.
So it is possible that thread A receives the resultset, which is
actually the answer of the query of thread B.
When all threads are requesting the same query (select table_version
from version where table_name='trusted') that's not a big issue,
but when at the same time I receive a SIP REGISTER, Another query is
sent on the same database connection as the query from the permissions
module.
Then the results are swapped, and the table_version function will stop
kamailio.
Shouldn't there be some kind locking mechanisch, that the thread that's
sending a query to the database server, through a database connection,
will also be the thread that's receiving the first resultset. It appears
that such kind of locking is not in use at the moment.
With kind regards,
Robert Verspuy

Robert,
We use Postgres 8.4 as well with the permissions module, but have not
had this problem...
