Thanks for the feedback. The error is something like column already exists and Quoting issue is Unlikely, and as I mentioned it works as expected if Im repeating the patch in 11.3 And I assume would if I was in 9.6.
I suspect it has something to do with the content, or lack of, in the pg_attribute table following an upgrade. -----Original Message----- From: Luca Ferrari [mailto:fluca1...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 20, 2019 3:41 PM To: Day, David <david....@redcom.com> Cc: pgsql-gene...@postgresql.org Subject: Re: Rename a column if not already renamed.?
