And in addition of Chris's answer: The user you connect with, should have enough permissions to create or update an index.
If not, QGIS (or yourself via psql or another client) will also not be able to create the index/pk. In that case you need to rise the permissions of your user, OR use another user to create it. QGIS should NOT crash though. If THAT is the case, please file a bug in our QGIS' tracker (with a reproducable scenario). Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde PS which QGIS version are you using here? I cannot get this message visible (but I do not have large tables at hand currently)... On 2/16/24 06:56, chris hermansen via QGIS-User wrote:
