Description:        Duplicate primary key
Details:

Ihave the following table (with 'id' as primary key:

Toolbox2Test=# \d hierarchy

                                             Table "public.hierarchy"

Indexes:

    "hierarchy_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)

    "hierarchy_deleted_idx" btree (deleted)

    "hierarchy_idhierarchy_share_idx" btree (idhierarchy_share)

    "hierarchy_idprodukt_idx" btree (idprodukt)



This gives me two rows with the same id=5077:

Toolbox2Test=# select * from hierarchy where id >= 5077 order by id;

  id   | parentid | idprodukt |                              bezeichnung
                         |           neudat           |           aedat

Search for all rows with id=5077 returns this:

Toolbox2Test=# select * from hierarchy where id = 5077;
