Im having trouble whith a Serial Primary key that i cannot use in a where
clause

here is what i did

ixmati=# create table jordi(
ixmati(# "jordi_idPK" serial NOT NULL,
ixmati(# jordi_nombre varchar);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE creará una secuencia implícita "jordi_jordi_idPK_seq"
para la columna "serial" "jordi.jordi_idPK"
CREATE TABLE
ixmati=# alter table only jordi
ixmati-# add constraint "jordi_idPK" primary key ( "jordi_idPK");
NOTICE:  ALTER TABLE / ADD PRIMARY KEY creará el índice implícito "jordi_idPK"
para la tabla "jordi"


Here is the error
ixmati=# select * from jordi where jordi_idPK = 1;
ERROR:  column "jordi_idpk" doesn't exists

You created the column with double quotes, so when you want to refer to
it, you should use double quotes as well ("jordi_idPK" = 1)
