Duplicate records in a table inspite of a primary key

[subamathy <subamathy@xxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi,

We are having problems resulting from users being able to create duplicate records
in table.

 

 Below is the description of the table

Column | Type | Modifiers
-----------------------+------------------------+-----------
user_id | character varying(128) | not null
person_email_required | numeric(5,0) |
wddx_data | text |
proxy_id | character varying(128) |
email_to | character varying(6) |
password | character varying(60) |
user_name | character varying(64) |
language_preference | character varying(20) |
enable_autosearch | character varying(6) |
country_id | character varying(16) |
Indexes:
"i_personalise" PRIMARY KEY, btree (user_id)
"i_personalise_proxy_id" btree (proxy_id)
"i_personalise_user_id" btree (user_id)

 

 

database version: PostgreSQL 8.0.1

i_personalise- index

conn type: Primary (constriant Type)
condeferrable: False
conkey: 1 (column which has constraint)
