Ooh - terrible sorry. The output from first post describing the database schema Was actually from my production machine - a raspberry pi. The pi hold a db on an usb-disk, which is pg_dump()ed every night and imported to ibm2 history db (the bad one) The schema is identical to the one with trouble - which is a history database Intended for testing I did not realize that would matter when posting - did the post away from home, I can reach the prod machine but not the history machine (ibm2) from outside. So - from the pi - first post bnl=# \q bnl@pibetbot:~ $ psql Timing is on.
