Hello all,
I just reproduced the same phenomenon on my installation (PostgreSQL
7.0.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc egcs-2.91.66) and it seems
to me that maybe the index is not correctly actualized while inserting
the record? It seems that any (!) update on blah (before executing the
delete) will solve the problem:
...
insert into blah (subdiv_code) values ('VG');
delete from blah where subdiv_code='VG';
...
=> ERROR
...
insert into blah (subdiv_code) values ('VG');
update blah set subdiv_code='VG' where subdiv_code='VG';
delete from blah where subdiv_code='VG';
...
=> OK
...
insert into blah (subdiv_code) values ('VG');
update blah set subdiv_code=subdiv_code;
delete from blah where subdiv_code='VG';
...
=> OK
...
insert into blah (subdiv_code) values ('VG');
update blah set id=id;
delete from blah where subdiv_code='VG';
...
=> OK
Best regards, Jens
