I think this explanation is fiction ... there is no "cacheing of
credentials" in there that I know about.
Maybe the server had not been running under the userid you thought it
was? But it would have to match the owner****p of the data directory,
so it's hard to see how a simple restart would fix it.
[ thinks... ] Hm, is the tablespace directory mounted over NFS?
I *have* heard of strange cacheing behaviors on NFS. In fact,
NFS has enough weirdnesses that I wouldn't recommend running a
database over it ...
