I have found some kind of problems with a rule I have on one of my databases,
and after some mailling with Tom, and re-checking my logs I find out that the
inserts look like the are getting (if I look at the logs) but the data is not
there!
This is the RULE:
CREATE RULE admin_insert AS ON
INSERT TO admin_view
DO INSTEAD (
INSERT INTO carrera
(carrera,titulo,area,descripcion,incumbencia,director,
matricula,cupos,informes,nivel,requisitos,duracion,
categoria)
VALUES
(new.carrera,new.titulo,new.id_subarea,new.descripcion,
new.incumbencia,new.director,new.matricula,new.cupos,
new.informes,new.nivel,new.requisitos,new.duracion,
new.car_categ);
INSERT INTO inscripcion
(carrera,fecha_ini,fecha_fin,lugar)
VALUES
(currval('carrera_id_curso_seq'),new.fecha_ini,new.fecha_fin,
new.lugar);
INSERT INTO resol
(carr,numero,year,fecha)
VALUES
(currval('carrera_id_curso_seq'),new.numero,new.year,new.fecha);
INSERT INTO log_carrera (accion,tabla,id_col) VALUES
('I','carrera',currval('carrera_id_curso_seq'));
);
As you can see, there is an insert to a log (log_carrera) table for each
insert to the view.
On the other hand, all inserts are done throught the view, so for each value
of the column id_curso of carrera (see the sequence of the other 3 inserts)
there should be a value in inscripcion.carrera, resol.carr and
log_carrera.id_col. This is not true for inscripcion:
webunl=> select count(id_curso) from carrera where id_curso NOT IN
webunl-> (select carrera from inscripcion);
count
-------
38
(1 row)
webunl=>
And if I check the log_carrera table for some of the values found by the last
query (obviously not the count but the id_curso):
webunl=> select * from log_carrera where id_col IN
webunl-> (87,88,90,92) AND tabla='carrera';
id_log | usuario | horario | accion | tabla | id_col
--------+---------+------------------------------+--------+---------+--------
259 | mariana | Mon 24 Sep 20:21:42 2001 GMT | I | carrera | 87
262 | mariana | Mon 24 Sep 20:36:26 2001 GMT | I | carrera | 88
269 | mariana | Mon 24 Sep 21:37:25 2001 GMT | I | carrera | 90
275 | mariana | Mon 24 Sep 21:53:38 2001 GMT | I | carrera | 92
(4 rows)
webunl=>
In this case 92 is the only one of all four that is OK. The other 3 didn't
make the inscripcion insert.
And the most courious thing i what the logs say:

Looks like the 4 inserts went OK, but I can't understand why they didn't get
to the database?

Porqué usar una base de datos relacional cualquiera,
si podés usar PostgreSQL?
