<h1>0LP01</h1>

At a glance

SQLSTATE 0LP01 is invalid_grant_operation in Class 0L. 0LP01 means that the GRANT or REVOKE operation is invalid for the object or privilege. The selected sequence case asks for INSERT, which is rejected with the dynamically assembled primary invalid privilege type INSERT for sequence; granting USAGE then succeeds.

Meaning

0LP01 means that the GRANT or REVOKE operation is invalid for the object or privilege. The selected sequence case asks for INSERT, which is rejected with the dynamically assembled primary invalid privilege type INSERT for sequence; granting USAGE then succeeds.

Diagnosis

Check object kind, privilege matrix, target role, ownership, and whether the statement is a column/default-privilege form. The selected error is an ERROR but leaves the autocommit session IDLE; the post-repair privilege check returns true.

Response

Rewrite the statement for the object’s supported privileges and verify the resulting ACL. For a sequence, choose the intended USAGE, SELECT, or UPDATE privilege; do not grant a broader privilege or retry unchanged.

Observed diagnostics

The structured evidence preserves the message template or dynamic assembly boundary. For this page, do not treat a client exception without a server diagnostic as proof of 0LP01.

Representative case

The SQL block creates a sequence, attempts the invalid INSERT privilege, grants USAGE, and verifies the effective privilege for the disposable role.

CREATE SEQUENCE grant_sequence;
GRANT INSERT ON SEQUENCE grant_sequence TO role;
GRANT USAGE ON SEQUENCE grant_sequence TO role;
SELECT has_sequence_privilege(role_literal, 'grant_sequence', 'USAGE');

The selected 18.6 run reports SQLSTATE 0LP01, primary invalid privilege type INSERT for sequence, and the asserted recovery state is IDLE before the final probe/repair. Every assertion and cleanup passed on 18.6 and 10.21.

The downloadable case and evidence projections are 0LP01 case JSON and authored evidence. The runner manifest is verify/cases/0LP01/cases.json; the page SQL is checked against its shared registry before publication.

Versions

The generated facts table records the locked catalogue snapshots and earliest observed definition. The selected natural runtime scope is PostgreSQL 18.6 and 10.21; this does not infer behavior for every intermediate release.

Source evidence

Evidence belongs to the frozen source and runtime versions listed here. It is not a runtime verification of the selected manual version.

0LP01 is the invalid_grant_operation condition in Class 0L.

Method: Read the fixed errcodes.txt definition and the locked catalogue metadata.

Limits: Directory identity does not identify every backend or client path.

src.errcodes.18.6

The fixed source paths associated with 0LP01 report the condition in the mechanism selected for this page.

Method: Trace the resolved source call records at the fixed release commits and compare their dynamic message fields.

Limits: Other calls can retain the same SQLSTATE with different context or text.

src.acl-invalid-grant-dynamic.18.6 src.acl-invalid-grant-dynamic.10.23

The selected invalid_grant_operation case passed with the expected structured diagnostics, recovery assertions, and cleanup on PostgreSQL 18.6 and 10.21.

Method: Run the shared registry case on isolated runner-owned latest and PG10 targets; inspect the final summaries and raw results.

Limits: This covers the selected case and versions only; it does not generalize to every driver, proxy, or intermediate release.

snippet-registry.0LP01 manifest.0LP01

The locked catalogue records 0LP01 in the listed snapshots; the runtime comparison here is limited to PostgreSQL 18.6 and 10.21.

Method: Read the generated facts block and locked manifest, then compare the selected target summaries.

Limits: Presence in a definition file is not an exact behavioral introduction; the two runtime targets do not prove all middle versions.

Primary

invalid privilege type INSERT for sequence

The primary is dynamically assembled from the object and privilege; the example is an observed instantiation, not a static format string.

Reproduction & repair cases

invalid_grant_operation · PG 10, 18

Preconditions

  • A runner-owned disposable target is provisioned.

Trigger: Grant an invalid sequence privilege, then grant USAGE to a disposable role.

Expected assertions

  • The selected server diagnostic has the expected SQLSTATE
  • The selected recovery/probe assertions pass
  • Runner-owned resources are cleaned up

Repair: Follow the case-specific repair statements and verify the resulting state.

Cleanup: Drop the case schema with an owner connection.
