please show us the exact error.
what version postgres are you using ?
are you using psql for your tests ?
if would be best is you cut'n'pasted a short psql session
that demonstrates the problem. something like:
+++++++++++++++++++
$ psql -d test
Welcome to psql 8.1.4, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
test=# create table blah (i int);
CREATE TABLE
test=# insert into blah values (1);
INSERT 0 1
test=# select * from blah;
i
---
1
(1 row)
test=# select * from blax;
ERROR: relation "blax" does not exist

this makes it easier for us to guess at what your problem is,
and simplifies reproducing it.
