[GENERAL] number of referencing and referenced columns for foreign key disagree

Good afternoon,
in 9.5.7 I have the following 2 tables -
CREATE TABLE words_users (
uid SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
created timestamptz NOT NULL,
visited timestamptz NOT NULL,
ip inet NOT NULL,
fcm text,
apns text,
sns text,
motto text,
vip_until timestamptz,
grand_until timestamptz,
banned_until timestamptz,
banned_reason text CHECK (LENGTH(banned_reason) > 0),
elo integer NOT NULL CHECK (elo >= 0),
medals integer NOT NULL CHECK (medals >= 0),
coins integer NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE words_social (
sid text NOT NULL,
social integer NOT NULL CHECK (0 < social AND social <= 64),
given text NOT NULL CHECK (given ~ '\S'),
family text,
photo text CHECK (photo ~* '^https?://...'),
lat float,
lng float,
stamp integer NOT NULL,
uid integer NOT NULL REFERENCES words_users ON DELETE CASCADE,
PRIMARY KEY(sid, social)
);
And then I am trying to add another table, which should reference the (sid, social) pair -
CREATE TABLE words_payments (
sid text NOT NULL REFERENCES words_social ON DELETE CASCADE,
social integer NOT NULL CHECK (0 < social AND social <= 64) REFERENCES words_social ON DELETE CASCADE,
trans text NOT NULL,
paid timestamptz NOT NULL,
price integer NOT NULL
);
Unfortunately, I get the error:
ERROR: 42830: number of referencing and referenced columns for foreign key disagree
LOCATION: ATAddForeignKeyConstraint, tablecmds.c:6345
How to refer to the (sid, social) FKs properly please?
The background is that social is one of the predefined (by me) constants:
public static final int UNKNOWN = 0;
public static final int GOOGLE = 1;
public static final int APPLE = 2;
public static final int ODNOKLASSNIKI = 4;
public static final int MAILRU = 8;
public static final int VKONTAKTE = 16;
public static final int FACEBOOK = 32;
public static final int AMAZON = 64;
And the sid is a "user id" used in the social network (for example Facebook user id).
Thank you
Alex

You have to use the separate-constraint FK syntax: CREATE TABLE words_payments ( sid text NOT NULL, social integer NOT NULL ... , foreign key (sid, social) references words_social ); Or in even more pedantic detail: foreign key (sid, social) references words_social (sid, social) You'd have to use that if (sid, social) were not the PK of words_social but just some random unique key. regards, tom lane

Thank you, Tom!
Should I have the CHECK in the new table written out again as in -

CREATE TABLE words_payments (
sid text NOT NULL,
social integer NOT NULL CHECK (0 < social AND social <= 64), /* should I add this? */
trans text NOT NULL,
paid timestamptz NOT NULL,
price integer NOT NULL CHECK (price > 0),
FOREIGN KEY (sid, social) REFERENCES words_social (sid, social) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
