Hi Andreas That would be fantastic if you can, thanks very much! ☺

You need to define as "geometry(WKBTYPE,srid)", e.g. "geometry(POLYGON,21781)" for QGIS. FME has an option to do that. I just don't have at hand. I could send you instructions on Monday, if you want.

This table is being created from a non-spatial SQL Server table, and we use a vertex creator transformer in FME to create the spatial table – we cannot seem to explicitly specify the geometry that the spatial table should be as it is not a spatial layer when imported?

Did you check if that view exists and if the view contains an entry for your spatial table? Also make sure, when importing from FME, that you restrict your geometry type to either POINT, POLYGON, LINESTRING, COMPOUNDCURVE or the MULTI versions. QGIS likes a single geometry type per table, while Postgis would permit to store mixed geometry types in the same geometry column. Maybe you did not specify this geometry type restriction when importing your data with FME.

I am finding that when accessing the data in DB Manager, I get a warning that says ‘There is no entry in geometry_columns!’. On asking another user they mentioned that the geometry columns table was removed in PostGIS 2.0, so my question is, is this a known issue / bug within QGIS, or is it the way in which I am storing my data? Just wondering if this will be looked at in future QGIS versions.
