Is "drupal_users" a table you created yourself? In a vanilla installation of Drupal, the users table is called just "users".
Anyway, to answer your question, you're trying to insert into drupal_users a value that already exists there, and which is subject to a constraint which allows only one instance of that value. To find the offending value you could do something like this (not tested):
select * from phpbb_users where exists (select 1 from drupal_users where drupal_users.name = phpbb_users.name); Hope this helps, Ray. -- Raymond O'Donnell :: Galway :: Ireland rod@xxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
