I'm betting that every time you run import_all.sh it rewrites the 
scripts. Pretty sure if you look at the file the creation script will 
have been rewritten to its original from.

Alright.

In your previous post you said "I tested the view creation with that 
code interactively, and it worked."

Does that mean you ran:

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW reserver_visible_restriction         (resource_id, 
resourcegroup_id, affil_id) AS select r.resource_id, 
rg.resourcegroup_id, a.affil_id FROM resources r, resourcegroupaffil rg, 
resourceaffil a where r.resource_id = a.resource_id and r.resource_id = 
rg.resource_id and r.requester_vis_only = '1’;

in a psql session by itself?


What happens if you do?:

psql ... -f RESERVER_VISIBLE_RESTRICTION_view.sql

When you run the import_all.sh does it show where it is pulling the 
scripts from?

If you search the source file directory for 
"reserver_visible_restriction" is there another file that contains it?
