Hi, Tom,
I expected a question on data structures. Well, the whole thing consists of
2683 tables and other stuff. I don't believe you need them all. But let me
know if it would be useful to send more structures for debug purposes.
That's the parent table.
CREATE TABLE ppdm.r_source
(
source character varying(40) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
abbreviation character varying(12) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
active_ind character varying(1) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
effective_date timestamp(0) without time zone,
expiry_date timestamp(0) without time zone,
long_name character varying(255) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
ppdm_guid character varying(38) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
remark character varying(2000) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
row_source character varying(40) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
short_name character varying(30) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
row_changed_by character varying(30) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
row_changed_date timestamp(0) without time zone,
row_created_by character varying(30) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
row_created_date timestamp(0) without time zone,
row_effective_date timestamp(0) without time zone,
row_expiry_date timestamp(0) without time zone,
row_quality character varying(40) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
CONSTRAINT r_s_pk PRIMARY KEY (source),
CONSTRAINT r_s_guid UNIQUE (ppdm_guid),
CONSTRAINT r_s_r_prq_fk FOREIGN KEY (row_quality)
REFERENCES ppdm.r_ppdm_row_quality (row_quality_id) MATCH SIMPLE
ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION,
CONSTRAINT r_s_r_s_fk FOREIGN KEY (row_source)
REFERENCES ppdm.r_source (source) MATCH SIMPLE
ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION,
CONSTRAINT r_s_ck CHECK (active_ind::text = ANY (ARRAY['Y'::character
varying, 'N'::character varying]::text[]))
)
WITH (
OIDS = FALSE
)
TABLESPACE pg_default;
That's a child table:
CREATE TABLE ppdm.ppdm_rule_remark

ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION,
CONSTRAINT prr_ck CHECK (active_ind::text = ANY (ARRAY['Y'::character

)
WITH (
OIDS = FALSE
)
TABLESPACE pg_default;
There's a record in r_source with a value 'PPDM39RNEX' on it.
In a sample script I specifically get this value from r_source. I can
utilize a string literal or whatever way to define the value.
My select works. My insert fails saying that there is no such value in
r_source. That's a foreign key checking issue.
The roughly same query fails in psql and pgAdmin as well.
In a mean time I will run the same exercise on version 11.8.
For me an issue like that is a failure of the 3-months long development
exercise and a good reason for a database backend replacement.
Best regards, Dmitry Ignatyev

This isn't clarifying much. If I guess at your table definitions, it works
for me:
regression=# create table r_source (source text primary key); CREATE TABLE
regression=# create table ppdm_rule_remark(source text references r_source);
CREATE TABLE regression=# insert into r_source values ('PPDM39RNEX'); INSERT
0 1 regression=# select source from r_source where source = 'PPDM39RNEX'
\gset regression=# \echo :source PPDM39RNEX regression=# INSERT INTO
ppdm_rule_remark("source") values (:'source'); INSERT 0 1
Please provide a *self contained* example if you want us to investigate more
closely.
