Kunal , no errors generated or is a stack generated when I run the
commands. ..Just getting "null" for column term when it does not work.
just to recap , here is what I see
# CITEXT must be CAST
SELECT CAST(tb1.id AS INTEGER) AS id,
tb1.term as term1,
CAST(tb1.term AS VARCHAR) as term
FROM my_postgres.public.p_keywords tb1 ;
term1 is NULL
term is OK
# works
SELECT CAST(tb1.id AS INTEGER) AS id,
CAST(tb1.term AS VARCHAR) as term,
tb1.created_at as created_at ,
tb1.updated_at as updated_at,
tb1.term_count as term_count
FROM my_postgres.public.p_keywords tb1 ;
term is OK
# works but does not contain CITEXT column
SELECT CAST(tb1.id AS INTEGER) AS id,
tb1.created_at as created_at ,
tb1.updated_at as updated_at,
tb1.term_count as term_count,
tb1.occurance as occurance,
tb1.top_cats as top_cats,
tb1.cats_by_priority as cats_by_priority
FROM my_postgres.public.p_keywords tb1 ;
# does not work - just added more columns beyond column term_count
SELECT CAST(tb1.id AS INTEGER) AS id,
CAST(tb1.term AS VARCHAR) as term,
tb1.created_at as created_at ,
tb1.updated_at as updated_at,
tb1.term_count as term_count,
tb1.occurance as occurance,
tb1.top_cats as top_cats,
tb1.cats_by_priority as cats_by_priority
FROM my_postgres.public.p_keywords tb1 ;
term returns "NULL"
structure of my_postgres.public.p_keywords table
several columns omitted
