Thread: Updating views does not work

Updating views does not work

From
Michiel_Lange@actuera.nl
Date:
In pgAdminII 1.4.2 I get the following error when I update a view:
An error has occurred in pgAdmin II:frmView.cmdOK_Click:
Number: -2147467259
Description: ERROR: Relation 'contact_klant_view' already exists

(contact_klant_view is a view where I have combined two tables using an
INNER JOIN)

Am I doing something wrong or is pgAdmin doing it? I think pgAdmin tries to
CREATE the view, however it should be ALTER or something like that. Or
can't views be altered?

I've just committed changes to fix this to CVS. If you want to try a
snapshot build, you can download a tarball from the binaries director on
http://cvs.pgadmin.org/. Installation instructions are in the readme.

Yes, it looks all OK now!

(from my other e-mail address that is registered... will register that one
from work too!)
Thanks!
