constraint is not dropped when table is dropped (maybe php related???) - Mailing list pgsql-novice

Hi all,

     I do the following  :

           DROP TABLE IF EXISTS xprod;
           CREATE TABLE xprod( dm1   INTEGER
                                                    d5     INTEGER
                                                   value  DOUBLE);
           ALTER TABLE xprod
           ADD CONSTRAINT xprod_p_key PRIMARY KEY (dm1,d5)

      If I run this once, everything is OK.  (Actually these are
postresql statements extracted from a php script)
      If I rerun this script I get an error
           'relation "xprod_p_key" already exists.

      I have tried to replicate this with straight postgresql statements
and find that constraints are dropped when the table
      is dropped.  Any clues as to what is happening would be appreciated.
