Hi Ruth,

You can make it work, if you split the ALTER TABLE statement to two parts like this:

CREATE SEQUENCE test_serial_bdr2 USING BDR;
ALTER TABLE test_table add column sec2 bigint primary key not null;
ALTER TABLE test_table alter column sec2 SET DEFAULT nextval('test_serial_bdr2');

Yours,
Ville

Hi,

 

Tried but same error appeared:

 

ERROR:  ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN ... DEFAULT may only affect UNLOGGED or TEMPORARY tables when BDR is active; test_table is a regular table

********** Error **********

 

I created the sequence using BDR and after that tried to alter table adding the column

 

CREATE SEQUENCE test_serial_bdr2 USING BDR;

 

ALTER TABLE test_table add column sec2 INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('test_serial_bdr2');

Hi Ruth,

 

You need to create the sequence first USING BDR then alter the table setting DEFAULT nextval('..._seq').

 

CREATE SEQUENCE my_id_seq USING BDR;

 

Make sure your table has a primary key for BDR.

 

HTH.

Hi,

 

How can I fix this in a database with BDR?

 

... ALTER TABLE … ADD COLUMN …. DEFAULT may only affect UNLOGGED or TEMPORARY

tables when BDR is active; test_table is a regular table

 

This error happens when trying to add a column to a table with a sequence.

 

Thanks in advance!
