Bug reference:      4119
Logged by:          Buk

PostgreSQL version: 8.2.4,

Description:        Add foreign key fails for non-presence of a record that
does exist.
Details:

I'm trying to run this:

big_db=# ALTER TABLE word_doc ADD FOREIGN KEY (word_id) REFERENCES words
(word_id) ON UPDATE RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT;

I'm getting this error:

ERROR:  insert or update on table "word_doc" violates foreign key constraint
"word_doc_word_id_fkey"
DETAIL:  Key (word_id)=(65935) is not present in table "words".

And yet, there is the "missing" key:

big_db=# select * from words where word_id = 65935;
 word_id |      word
---------+----------------
   65935 | bioremediation
(1 row)


What am I doing wrong??

Cheers, Buk.
