The "disable trigger" statement runs without error, but does not seem to have any effect. Here's a simple test case. -- create table and constraint create table foo (a int); alter table foo add constraint foobar check(a < 0); -- this should fail, and does insert into foo (a) values (1); -- disable trigger and try again alter table foo disable trigger all; -- this should work, but still fails. insert into foo (a) values (1); select version() EnterpriseDB 9.3.4.10, compiled by Visual C++ build 1600, 64-bit (and just for giggles, I tried it on another machine running "PostgreSQL 9.3.1, compiled by Visual C++ build 1600, 64-bit") > > -- > Shaun Thomas > OptionsHouse, LLC | 141 W.
