Обсуждение: TOAST tables, cannot truncate

Sorry for crossposting, didn't know where to post.

Any hint/help on this?!

db_postgres1=# truncate ref_v2_drs_valid_product ;
ERROR:  expected both swapped tables to have TOAST tables

I need to truncate this table, this is the first time I see this error.

Regards,
Guido

Ok, problem solved.

A previous ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN over this table was performed.
By some reason, truncate didn't work then. Would like to know why...it does not seems to be a very frequent problem,
dueto the fact I only found one chat on the mailing lists talking about this issue, and was hard to find :( ! 

A dump of the table schema, passed to the psql command
(cat table_dump.sql | psql xxx) worked fine.

TRUNCATE is now available.

Thanks.

Guido
