No, I checked that ;) I have successfully defined a function to access 
the VM system properties. This reports 'user.name' as 'postgres'. This 
user has full access to the jar file.

I had thought that it may be a problem with the security manager 
installed by pljava, so I thought I'd debug it. I added 
'-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8000' to the 
VM options so that I could attach remotely. This causes the VM to fail 
to start.

ERROR: transport error 202: bind failed: Permission denied 
["transport.c",L41]
ERROR: JDWP Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, 
TRANSPORT_INIT(510) ["debugInit.c",L500]
JDWP exit error JVMTI_ERROR_INTERNAL(113): No transports 
initializedINFO:  00000: FATAL ERROR in native method: JDWP No 
transports initialized, jvmtiError=JVMTI_ERROR_INTERNAL(113)

Does the fact that the VM can't open a socket suggest some kind of lower 
level security issue? Should I be able to remote debug the code in this 
way? Remote debugging works if I launch the VM from the command line 
with these options as the postgres user?

thanks, Jason
