# 2F004

## At a glance {#at-a-glance}

The catalogue defines this standard member, but the resolved PostgreSQL 18.6 core/contrib scan found no native report group. Do not infer a PostgreSQL function volatility or language rule from the condition name.

## Meaning {#meaning}

2F004 describes a routine data-access restriction only when the producing implementation enforces it. A client, extension, ECPG layer, or remote routine engine may use the member independently.

## Messages {#messages}

No fixed PostgreSQL message variant was adopted because the bounded scan did not resolve a native report group.

## Diagnosis {#diagnosis}

Record the routine owner, invocation phase, actual SQLSTATE, and declaration that limited reads. If the backend returned a different code, follow that code and its source path; the fixed catalogue row is not a fallback diagnosis.

## Response {#response}

Apply only the producing implementation’s documented declaration or caller repair. No native PostgreSQL reporting path or generic retry boundary was confirmed for 2F004.

## Versions {#versions}

The locked catalogue places this condition at least by PostgreSQL 7.4. The facts block lists the published snapshots; source-path status is limited to the fixed PostgreSQL 18.6 evidence below.
