Hi all,
I have a user submitting a query involving a column that is an hstore type. The query seems to run just fine from her pgAdmin III console, but I cannot get it to run from a psql session. I've been studying the hstore page on the postgresql site but nothing there is quite like this query on that page. Here's the query:
SELECT
m.account_number_hash as account_num_hash,
a.status as status,
a.balance_currency as currency,
a.balance as balance,
'datamart_fdw_m2'::text as platform
FROM account a
INNER JOIN switch_mcontainer m ON (m.attributes -> 'EXTERNAL_ID')::text = a.external_id::text;
The psql error says: ERROR: operator does not exist: public.hstore -> unknown
I don't quite understand the error as the postgresql hstore page shows the "->" as a valid operator. Anyone have any ideas? And of course, the better question is why does it run correctly in pgAdmin? Please let me know if you need the table descriptions for either the account or mcontainer or both tables.
Thanks in advance,
Jay
