Re: cannot insert or update

I am running the perl dbi module on windows xp as a client and pg 8.2.3 on windows xp for the server.  I can do selects from the client including those concerning schema data but not updates, etc

The actual sql being used is:

SELECT *  FROM marketlayout

which works, but this

INSERT INTO marketlayout\nVALUES('07-05-12', 'Leichhardt', 276, 349, 280, 297, 'test case')

doesn’t work.

PS Phil – I don’t know anything about the message you are getting.

I can’t offer any advice then, but I’m sure the first question from those who can, will be what version of PG and what platform are you running on?

Cheers,

I do a select afterwards and they haven’t had any effect.  I am working from a remote computer and the sql works on the server running pg so that is why I thought it might be permissions.
