Hi Laurenz,

Thanks a lot for your kind support.

1 - At the moment my *postgresql.conf *is by default with no limit
*#temp_file_limit
= -1*
Maybe I just have to uncomment it so that this rule really applies. Let's
see this evening if your suggestion fix it.

2 - Do you think it could come from another param not set up correctly?

3 - Can I try to watch out the log or size of the temporary table created
after my query failed so that I can investigate what happened?

Cheers,

Vincent
