PostgreSQL version: 16.1
Operating system: Windows Server
Description:
Dear Dev team,
I have a table called mdt_prestation with the following column:
colId integer NOT NULL GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY
I have a timesheet app with only one query that INSERT values in this table
(extract from the psql log):
INSERT INTO myTable (Client, Employee)VALUES('1150','185') RETURNING colId
I have about 35 users that uses this app and sometimes we have the following
error:
ERREUR: la valeur d'une clé dupliquée rompt la contrainte unique «
myTable_pkey» (error duplicate value key, unique constraint violation, )
DETAIL: La clé « (colid)=(1704236) » existe déjà (key 1704236 already
exist)
Most of the time we don't have this issue. And the sequence is correct
(sequence = max id value). I'm sure that nobody insert manuel id.
So I believe that there is a concurrency issue in postgresql server with the
sequence when we insert a value.
Best regards
Mael
