Some actual examples form you end would help:)
My guess is you are trying to insert a NULL value into the PK field
instead of just not inserting anything at all. An alternative is to use
the DEFAULT keyword. See below for example.
create table test_table(id_fld serial primary key, char_fld varchar);
test=> \d test_table
Table "public.test_table"
Column | Type | Modifiers
----------+-------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------
id_fld | integer | not null default
nextval('test_table_id_fld_seq'::regclass)
char_fld | character varying |
Indexes:
"test_table_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id_fld)
test=> INSERT INTO test_table (id_fld , char_fld) VALUES (NULL, 't');
ERROR: null value in column "id_fld" violates not-null constraint
test=> INSERT INTO test_table (char_fld) VALUES ('t');
INSERT 0 1
test=> INSERT INTO test_table (id_fld , char_fld) VALUES (DEFAULT, 't');
INSERT 0 1
