Subject: Cannot drop role
Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 13:43:10 -0500 (EST)
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.20.1702131336020.4109@z87> (raw)

I've seen one or two mentions of this problem with no applicable solution. 
I have a case where I cannot drop a role because "...5 objects depend on 
it" (according to pgAdmin 3).  When I connect to the database that holds 
those objects (they are not named) and try to drop the role I get an error 
message:

  [Error Code: 0, SQL State: XX000]  ERROR: could not find tuple for 
default ACL 2243075

Even after trying a number of queries that are purported to list grants 
and ownerships for given ids I can turn up nothing that references the 
role by name.

At this point I suspect there's something corrupted in the system catalog. 
How can I find the table entry (or entries) that reference that 
identifier?  The fact that the message is issued suggests a link somewhere 
but I cannot locate it.

Many thanks!

Steve
