Re: problem with foreign key

 hi group,

trying to create foreign key:

ALTER TABLE porder1 ADD CONSTRAINT order_exist
FOREIGN KEY (docuuserid) REFERENCES trade(tradeid) ON DELETE RESTRICT;

column docuuserid is integer in porder1
column tradeid    is serial  in trade and belong to primary key (single column)

getting In EMS PostgreSQL
ERROR:  insert or update on table "porder1" violates foreign key constraint "order_exist"
DETAIL: Key (docuuserid)=(8415) is not present in table "trade".

In PostgreSQL  Code Factory
SQL Error: ERROR:  insert or update on table "porder1" violates foreign key constraint "order_exist"
DETAIL:    Key (docuuserid)=(8415) is not present in table "trade".

postgresql 8.4.4-1 on windows 7 ultimate 64 bit standard installation

I'm not able to figure out what should be a problem.



kindly regards

ljubomir erdeljan
