Thanks again Alban. I didn't mention but if I remove the braces then it
gives below error but the meaning is same as the error when I specify
braces.
techdb=# SELECT insert_history_info();
ERROR: error from Perl function "insert_history_info": each EXCEPT query
must have the same number of column

Great! Thanks Alban, Alexander, and Thomas.
That solved the issue but could you tell me what is the issue when I give
brackets in second query?
techdb=# INSERT INTO changelogtest (id, txid, txtime) values (5, 123, now())
except *select id, txid, txtime
*from changelogtest
where id=5;
INSERT 0 1

For this case you're using 3 values in the first half of the expression and

But you are trying to insert text value 'now' into table, that's why appears
this error.
If you want to insert current time try using function now() not text 'now'
In Your case insert should be f

Thanks but I don't have text type in my table.
sysdb=# \d changelogtest
techdb=# INSERT INTO changelogtest (id, txid, txtime) values (5, 123, 'now')
except select id, txid, txtime
from changelogtest
where id=5;
'now' *is* a text type value

Try adding a cast to one of them.

it tells you that it is not able to compare timestamp with text. Different
types. Cast if you have to explicitly.

Hi, could anyone please tell me what is wrong in below query. Does it mean
that EXCEPT doesn't allow comparing TIMESTAMP type?
techdb=# INSERT INTO changelogtest (id, txid, txtime) values (5, 123, 'now')
except select id, txid, txtime
from changelogtest
where id=5;
ERROR: EXCEPT types text and t
10 matches
