The People table has 965 rows; the table structure is:
Table "public.people"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable |
Default
---------------+-----------------------+-----------+----------+-------------------------------------
person_nbr | integer | | not null |
nextval('people_person_nbr_seq'::reg
class)
lname | character varying(32) | | not null | '??'::character
varying
fname | character varying(15) | | not null | '??'::character
varying
job_title | character varying(48) | | |
company_nbr | integer | | |
loc_nbr | integer | | not null | 1
loc_phone_ext | character varying(32) | | |
direct_phone | character varying(15) | | |
direct_fax | character varying(15) | | |
cell_phone | character varying(15) | | |
email | character varying(64) | | |
active | boolean | | not null | true
comment | text | | |
Indexes:
"people_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (person_nbr)
Foreign-key constraints:
"people_org_nbr_fkey" FOREIGN KEY (company_nbr) REFERENCES
companies(company_nbr) ON UPDATE CASC
ADE ON DELETE RESTRICT
I'm trying to insert 15 new rows to that table by inserting all columns
except the first one.. Psql tells me:
psql:insert_into_people.sql:16: ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint
"people_pkey"
DETAIL: Key (person_nbr)=(683) already exists.
person_nbr 683 is not in any row to be inserted.
I was under the impression that the person_nbr for the new rows would start
with 966 but that's apparently not happening.
What have I missed?
