Still the problem with the autoincrement field - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hi there.

As two people said I created now a sequence .... I have the following now:

Database    = jobforum
 +------------------+----------------------------------+----------+
 |  Owner           |             Relation             |   Type   |
 +------------------+----------------------------------+----------+
 | postgres         | offene_stellen                   | table    |
 | postgres         | seq                              | sequence |
 +------------------+----------------------------------+----------+

Table    = offene_stellen
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
|              Field               |              Type                | Length|
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
| id                               | int4 default nextval ( 'seq' )   |     4 |
| bezeichnung                      | char()                           |   100 |
| arbeitsort                       | char()                           |   100 |
| berater                          | char()                           |   100 |
| gefordert                        | char()                           |  1000 |
| geboten                          | char()                           |  1000 |
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+

Table    = seq
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
|              Field               |              Type                | Length|
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+
| sequence_name                    | name                             |    32 |
| last_value                       | int4                             |     4 |
| increment_by                     | int4                             |     4 |
| max_value                        | int4                             |     4 |
| min_value                        | int4                             |     4 |
| cache_value                      | int4                             |     4 |
| is_cycled                        | char                             |     1 |
| is_called                        | char                             |     1 |
+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+-------+


and when I want to add some data .. how to do this?
when I do the following:

insert into offene_stellen values ('', 'Maurer', 'Buchs', 'Rheinhalter Claudio', 'flexibilitaet', 'gutes Team');

the id field is always 0, and when I do a:

insert into offene_stellen values ('Maurer', 'Buchs', 'Rheinhalter Claudio', 'flexibilitaet', 'gutes Team');

I get a:
ERROR:  pg_atoi: error in "Maurer": can't parse "Maurer"


How do I add data, so that the id field is autoincremented?
