PostgreSQL version: 8.2.5/8.3beta2
Operating system: FreeBSD 6.1
Description: Inherited serials change on dump/restore
Details:
Setup
------
Source: Server 8.2.3. Client 8.3beta2.
Dest: Server 8.2.3. Client 8.2.3.
Description
------------
When I do a dump and restore of my database my serials change.
In the original version, the table looks like this (dump from pgAdmin III)
and references the sequence picture_comments_comment_id_seq
CREATE TABLE picture_comments
(
-- Inherited: comment_id serial NOT NULL,
-- Inherited: user_id integer NOT NULL,
<snip some unrelated columns for brevity>
-- Inherited: id_tree ltree NOT NULL DEFAULT ''::ltree,
CONSTRAINT picture_comments_pkey PRIMARY KEY (comment_id)
) INHERITS (base_comments)
WITHOUT OIDS;
when I restore the dump I get this which now references the base table's
serial base_comments_comment_id_seq
CREATE TABLE picture_comments
(
-- Inherited: comment_id integer NOT NULL DEFAULT
nextval('base_comments_comment_id_seq'::regclass),
-- Inherited: user_id integer NOT NULL,
<snip>
-- Inherited: id_tree ltree NOT NULL DEFAULT ''::ltree,
pid integer NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT picture_comments_pkey PRIMARY KEY (comment_id)
) INHERITS (base_comments)
WITHOUT OIDS;
When I do the dump with the 8.2 client libraries it seems to work fine so
this seems to be a bug in 8.3.
