Subject: Problem with SET CONSTRAINTS ALL DEFERRED;

Message-ID: <446DAC63.1080701@faith.digsys.bg> (raw)

Hi Friends,

I am trying to postpone the foreign key constraint check till the end of 
transaction but it doesn't work.
Can anyone help me with a tip what I am doing wrong.

Thanks in advance.

test-#                                                          WHERE 
picture.id = element_picture.picture_id

AND element_picture.element_id = 8;
ERROR:  update or delete on "picture" violates foreign key constraint

DETAIL:  Key (id)=(223) is still referenced from table "element_picture".
