Thread: Problem with tablespaces on older versions of PostgreSQL

Hello!

I just discovered the following problem with PGAdmin 1.8 RC1 (on WinXP)
I have a server where still PostgreSQL version 7.4.7 is running (Debian 
Sarge). I created a table with PGAdmin, finished (which went fine) and 
added a little bit later some more columns.
PGAdmin gave me a syntax error, because in the SQL seen in the SQl-Pane 
there is (obviously because of the version of the database server) no 
name for a tablespace...

The generated SQL looks something like

ALTER TABLE myschema.mytable   ADD COLUMN test character varying(3);
ALTER TABLE myschema.mytable SET TABLESPACE ;

I hope I made it clear!

Thanks for PGAdmin III and your continuing efforts!


Albin

Clear enough to help me fix this. I'll commit my fix in a few minutes.

Thanks for your report.
