Not sure about SERIAL. In postgreSQL we have sequence database object
("http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/sql-createsequence.html").
Perhaps the DDL SQL statements below may help.
CREATE SEQUENCE hy3_pack_seq MINVALUE 1000;
CREATE TABLE hy3_pack
(
hy3_id INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('hy3_pack_seq') -- or hy3_id
BIGINT NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('hy3_pack_seq')
,hy3_serie_nummer text NOT NULL
,hy3_barcode text NOT NULL
,hy3_type_vulling text NOT NULL
,hy3_tarra_gewicht text
,hy3_artikel_id numeric NOT NULL
,hy3_refill boolean
,vernietigd boolean
,opmerking text
,CONSTRAINT hy3_pack_pkey PRIMARY KEY(hy3_id)
)
