Relation Objects Does Not Exist Error During Storage Uploads 8f21f0

If authenticated users receive a 500 Internal Server Error during file uploads and your database logs report error: relation "objects" does not exist, it typically indicates the database cannot locate the required internal storage tables.

Why Does This Happen? This error occurs when the authenticated role's search_path does not include the storage schema. Because the schema is missing from the path, the database fails to find the objects table (which resides in storage.objects) during the upload process.

How to Fix: You can resolve this by updating the role configuration via the SQL Editor:

1. Execute the following command to append the storage schema to the role's search path: ALTER ROLE authenticated SET search_path = public, storage;
2. Verify that uploads from authenticated users now succeed.

Best Practices:

• To maintain compatibility with default schema permissions, avoid creating custom Postgres roles for application users.
• Instead, use custom claims within auth.users.raw_app_meta_data to manage user-specific logic or permissions.
