Please show the complete example that worked for completeness.
FYI, psql is your friend. When I work out queries I try them in psql
first and then move up to whatever interface I will be using. This is
usually done on a dev server so mistakes don't bring things down. If I
have to work on a production instance then I do:
BEGIN;
some_query;
ROLLBACK;
