Hi! I wonder why following SQL-sequence will fail: -- DROP TABLE car; -- DROP TABLE vehicle; -- DROP SEQUENCE vehicle_id_seq; CREATE TABLE vehicle( id SERIAL, color TEXT, -- CONSTRAINT PK_vehicle PRIMARY KEY (id) ); CREATE TABLE car( driver TEXT )INHERITS(vehicle); -- DROP TABLE foobar; CREATE TABLE foobar( snafu TEXT, driver_id INTEGER CONSTRAINT CR_foobar_driver_id REFERENCES car (id) ); Result: psql:inherits_test.sql:25: NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit trigger(s) for FOREIGN KEY check(s) psql:inherits_test.sql:25: ERROR: UNIQUE constraint matching given keys for referenced table "car" not found Is it just me or postgres? =) BR, Jani P.S. My Postgresql's version number is 7.1. --- Jani Averbach ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
