Can you run the following statements and let me know which ones fail (I am thinking the first one should and others wont).

SELECT sequencename FROM pg_sequences LIMIT 1;

SELECT count(*) FROM pg_catalog.pg_class LIMIT 1;

SELECT relname FROM pg_catalog.pg_class WHERE relkind = 'S' LIMIT 1;

Thanks, that's useful. It rules out sequences as the cause, so the utl_file_dir reference is coming from somewhere else.

DBCode never references utl_file_dirdirectly, so on your compatible build it must be baked into some view or function definition that we read while introspecting. Can you run these two and tell me what comes back?

-- functions/procedures whose body references utl_file_dir
SELECT n.nspname AS schema, p.proname AS name, 'function' AS kind
FROM pg_catalog.pg_proc p
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON n.oid = p.pronamespace
WHERE p.prosrc ILIKE '%utl_file_dir%';

-- views whose definition references utl_file_dir
SELECT schemaname, viewname, 'view' AS kind
FROM pg_catalog.pg_views
WHERE definition ILIKE '%utl_file_dir%';

That should point straight at the object that's pulling it in.

One more thing that'll help narrow it down: when does the error actually show up? On connecting, on expanding the database, or on expanding a particular schema? If it's tied to a specific schema, let me know which one.

1. Both queries returned empty results.
2. The error occurred when expanding the database.
3. The database I’m connected to is Hologres, which is fully compatible with PostgreSQL network protocol and standard SQL syntax.

Thanks, my is blocked for some reason (Your account is flagged for security risks. Login access is restricted by Alibaba Cloud. Contact support for resolution.), and I cannot contact support without logging in.. fun times… guessing they do not like me just spinning up and closing db's when testing there options while I see if I can get it unblocked to test.

Can you try these statements:

  -- 1. foreign servers
  SELECT s.oid, s.srvname, fdw.fdwname, s.srvtype, s.srvversion, s.srvoptions,
         obj_description(s.oid, 'pg_foreign_server')
  FROM pg_catalog.pg_foreign_server s
  JOIN pg_catalog.pg_foreign_data_wrapper fdw ON fdw.oid = s.srvfdw
  ORDER BY s.srvname;

  -- 2. foreign tables
  SELECT ft.ftrelid, n.nspname, c.relname, ft.ftserver, fs.srvname, ft.ftoptions
  FROM pg_catalog.pg_foreign_table ft
  JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class c ON ft.ftrelid = c.oid
  JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON c.relnamespace = n.oid
  JOIN pg_catalog.pg_foreign_server fs ON ft.ftserver = fs.oid
  ORDER BY n.nspname, c.relname;

  -- 3. types
  SELECT t.oid, n.nspname, t.typname, t.typlen
  FROM pg_type t
  JOIN pg_namespace n ON n.oid = t.typnamespace;

  -- 4. schemas
  SELECT oid, nspname FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace
  WHERE nspname !~ '^pg_toast' AND nspname !~ '^pg_temp_'
  ORDER BY nspname;

3. The data volume is too large to export.
