Hi everybody. I am rather new to both technnologies (Qgis and PGsql data) so sorry if the question is lame. When I try to connect to a PGsql database, everything goes fine; layers are correctly listed and I can see their geometry type and primary keys. However the "add layer" [1] is disabled: on the lower left part of QGis there is a message saying that QGis is busy scanning the "the_geom" column, and this is taking a lot of time (there are several huge datasets in that db).

After the scan is over, eventually I am not able to load most of the datasets. A message states they are invalid and cannot be loaded.

I know I am not giving you a lot of hints. The errors are quite generic. However when I try to connect to another PGsql database (one that I can fully manage) everything goes fine. Could the dataset be corrupted in some strange way, could they lack something that forces QGis to scan the entire geometry data?

Every suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
