Sorry I'm working on the information the DBA has given me as I myself am not a
DBA but really trying hard to understand J
The error in the slony log is:_
2010-11-10 13:21:50 GMTERROR remoteWorkerThread_1: "update only
"public"."stp_seatingmaps" set paà;
" ERROR: syntax error at or near ""
LINE 1: update only "public"."stp_seatingmaps" set paà;
This happens when that table is updated on the master and it tried to replicate
to the slave producing that error, we have had to turn off the replication on
that table for the moment. We are running RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 advanced
server 64 bit, Postgresql Plus Advanced server 8.4 and slony is version 2.0.3
Thanks for answering so quickly, I hope this is a bit more information for you

You say "replication is breaking". Please describe your symptoms
exactly. Nobody can offer you help without knowing exactly what you
observe. Also include details on what system you have and what
versions of your OS, Postgres, and slony you are running.
My first guess based on zero information is that someone ran a schema
alteration without running it through the slonik EXECUTE SCRIPT
command.

this is incorrect. bytea columns replicate just fine.

no. the minimal unit of replication is the table.
