I can repeat the above 4 steps as much as I want. The result remains the same. I would have expected to have an empty result doing the final repeated select, but it shows exactly the same output. I would have expected an empty result too. Can you confirm that p_ci_pipelines used to be a partition of something? Can you show us the full DDL (or psql \d+ output) for the partitioned table it used to be part of, and for that matter also for p_ci_pipelines? Did the FK used to reference the whole partitioned table, or just this partition? I'm suspicious that our repair recipe might not have accounted for self-reference FKs fully, but that's just a gut feeling at this point. regards, tom lane
