can't drop table

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm a bit baffled by this, i can't drop a table and I'm getting the most bizarre message that doesn't make sense to me. To make things worse, I was able to drop it on my test database which is a dump of my production database running the same version of postgresql.
The index it's complaining about is the primary for a different table.

Does anyone have any ideas?

basement=# \d game_giveaway
                              Table "public.game_giveaway"
       Column        |  Type   |                       Modifiers
---------------------+--------- +-------------------------------------------------------- game_giveaway_id | integer | not null default nextval ('game_giveaway_id_seq'::text)
game_id             | integer |
description         | text    |
date_placed_on_list | date    |
date_given_away     | date    |
given_to_user_id    | integer |
Indexes:
    "game_giveaway_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (game_giveaway_id)

basement=# drop TABLE public.game_giveaway ;
ERROR:  "game_pkey" is an index
basement=# select version();
                                                 version
