The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 19462
Logged by: chunling qin
Email address: 303677365@qq.com
PostgreSQL version: 15.0
Operating system: centos
Description:
## Summary
A MERGE statement targeting a partitioned table fails with `ERROR: unknown
action in MERGE WHEN clause` when the NOT MATCHED clause uses `INSERT
DEFAULT VALUES`.
## PostgreSQL Version
```
PostgreSQL 15devel on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by clang version 17.0.6,
64-bit
```
Tested on REL_15_STABLE branch.
## Steps to Reproduce
```sql
-- Setup: Create partitioned target table
CREATE TABLE pmerge_tgt (id INT) PARTITION BY RANGE (id);
CREATE TABLE pmerge_tgt_lo PARTITION OF pmerge_tgt FOR VALUES FROM
(MINVALUE) TO (100);
CREATE TABLE pmerge_tgt_hi PARTITION OF pmerge_tgt FOR VALUES FROM (100) TO
(MAXVALUE);
CREATE TABLE pmerge_tgt_def PARTITION OF pmerge_tgt DEFAULT;
-- Create source table
CREATE TABLE pmerge_src (id INT);
-- Insert test data
INSERT INTO pmerge_tgt VALUES (50);
INSERT INTO pmerge_src VALUES (200);
-- Bug reproduction
MERGE INTO pmerge_tgt t USING pmerge_src s ON t.id > 1000
WHEN MATCHED THEN DO NOTHING
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT DEFAULT VALUES;
```
This issue could not be reproduced with the latest version, but we can
easily reproduced by PostgreSQL 15devel. I am submitting this report for
official confirmation.
