Dropping columns casues auto_increment field to be lost
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-3177
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3177
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 10.3.1.4
Environment: Windows XP SP2
JVM: Hotspot JVM 1.6
Derby: 10.3.1000004.561794
Reporter: Charlie Hubbard
I have a DB that I've been updating over time, and I've run into this bug.
After running this script Messages.ID table looses it's auto incrementing
column after running the script to completion. If I create a virgin DB and run
this script against the Message table's ID column looses it's auto increment
data type. If you comment out the last three alter table statements the
column's auto increment feature is not lost. You don't have to insert any data
into the database for this to happen.
I tried creating a simpler script to expose this problem, but was unsuccessful.
I tried something like:
create table Messages (
Name varchar(256),
KillThis varchar(256),
id INTEGER NOT NULL GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY (START WITH 1, INCREMENT BY
1),
CONSTRAINT MESSAGES_id_pk PRIMARY KEY(id)
);
alter table Messages drop column KillThis;
However, this DID NOT EXPOSE THE BUG. So there is something else at work
causing this problem. See the attached script to recreate the problem.
