Hi I have a few questions: 1. Is there a simple way in postgresql 6.3.2 to implement a unique index on one field with null's allowed. So if the field is null it's ok else the value must be unique? 2. I have copied the contents of a database ( ../data/base/name/* ) from one computer to another computer. Is this in fact the way to copy databases? After copying everything works except for example \dt , \di which gives the following error: ERROR: cache lookup for userid 1003 failed What does this mean?
