Hello, I would liko to update a table from a view's rule: The environment: ------------------------------- CREATE TABLE real (name text); CREATE TABLE alibi (name text); CREATE TABLE alibi_view (name text); CREATE RULE "_RETalibi_view" AS ON SELECT TO alibi_view DO INSTEAD SELECT name FROM alibi; CREATE RULE "_UPDalibi_view" AS ON UPDATE TO alibi_view DO INSTEAD UPDATE real SET name=NEW.name --WHERE name=OLD.name ; INSERT INTO real VALUES ('first'); INSERT INTO real VALUES ('sec'); ------------------------------- UPDATE alibi_view SET name='new' WHERE name='sec'; --> UPDATE 0 ...it is my problem UPDATE alibi_view SET name='new'; --> UPDATE 2 ... it is OK If I don't comment the line "where .." in the rule _UPDalibi_view , it isn't working at all. Can I do this with rule? (I need the view to controll permissions.) Thanks in advance, DBalazs (postgresql 7.02)
