Hi All
New on this list!
We have an existing postgres deployment which is showing some odd behaviour on
Live. We use Navicat to manage it, and when we open a specific table via
navicat on live, it says we don't have a primary index - although the design
view does show it. We have auto deployment scripts between environments, and
none of the other environments show this. Doing a structure dump shows that
there is indeed a primary index:
CREATE TABLE "public"."briefs_master" (
"id" int4 NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('briefs_master_id_seq'::regclass),
.....
"ext_system_ref" varchar(255) COLLATE "pg_catalog"."default"
.....
ALTER TABLE "public"."briefs_master" ADD CONSTRAINT "briefs_master_pkey"
PRIMARY KEY ("id");
However, we are seeing very strange behaviour on live. We can search via the ID
field just fine. Searching on ext_system_ref returns no records.
If I manually add data to the ext field, it then queries correctly. But as
other records are added to the table, this field data disappears on the row I
manually edited.
We have run a reindex on the specific index as well as table. We have run a
vacuum on the table. Nothing seems to resolve and we are quite confused as to
what the issue could be. Any help and guidance would be most appreciated
Regards
Zahir
