My exact situation was a deployment via sqitch, It appears that uses psql under the hood based on the error message I get.
Running just "sqitch deploy" I get an error due to a non-fully qualified name and a missing search path (my mistakes). The error I get: + 004 .. psql:deploy/004.sql:72: ERROR: relation "vobservations" does not exist LINE 11: FROM vobservations ^ not ok "psql" unexpectedly returned exit value 3 Reverting all changes Running the following works for me in this case and allows it to find the view in the proper schema. PGOPTIONS='-c search_path=piws,public' sqitch deploy Ryan
