OK, what probably happened was that the data was loaded okay and then you got these errors from the commands that attempted to create unique indexes. So aside from the problem that your data is inconsistent, you now also lack indexes. You probably ought to see about fixing the duplications so that you can establish the indexes. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
