Hi Andres,
oh, it returns a row!
lyriks=> SET enable_indexscan = false;
SET
lyriks=> SET enable_bitmapscan = false;
SET
lyriks=> SET constraint_exclusion = false;
SET
lyriks=> EXPLAIN SELECT ctid, * FROM lytartist WHERE nartistnr IS NULL;
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on lytartist (cost=0.00..1274.20 rows=1 width=68)
Filter: (nartistnr IS NULL)
(2 rows)
lyriks=> SELECT ctid, * FROM lytartist WHERE nartistnr IS NULL;
ctid | nartistnr | sartist | nartistnralias | nstatusnr | ntypenr
| surl | nlabelnr | nusernr | dnow | ssoundex | surlname
----------+-----------+---------+----------------+-----------+---------+------+----------+---------+------+----------+----------
(284,60) | | | | |
| | | | | |
(1 row)
How do I delete it from there there?
lyriks=> DELETE FROM lytartist where ctid = (284,60);
ERROR: operator does not exist: tid = record
LINE 1: DELETE FROM lytartist where ctid = (284,60);
^
HINT: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You
might need to add explicit type casts.
And how can I prevent inserts like these in the future?
Thanks!
Dominik
