Hi
I come from a MSSQL background and am trying to figure out how to write
deployment scripts for PostgreSQL. Typically, if I want to drop a
function, I would write a script that first checks for it's existence and
then performs the drop.
In MSSQL it would be as easy as (this can be done in nativ

now I'd like to have the id in continuing number to get:

Simpliest way to do would be to create a sequence and update the whole

Hi,
my colleague unfortunately ran some database dump in template1 on our
production server, pg7.3.5. Can we drop template1, dump template0 and
rebuild template1 from this dump? Or does exist some better way how to
repair template1 without any affect of living database instances?

If you don't mind creating a psql function, I guess you could do something

Keep in mind there is no built in API to debug PL/pgSQL like there is for PL/SQL. You will have to use the old true and tried output statements to debug your stored procs.
