J'essaie de créer cet exemple de structure de table dans Postgres 9.1 :
CREATE TABLE foo (
name VARCHAR(256) PRIMARY KEY
);
CREATE TABLE bar (
pkey SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
foo_fk VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL REFERENCES foo(name),
name VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
UNIQUE (foo_fk,name)
);
CREATE TABLE baz(
pkey SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
bar_fk VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL REFERENCES bar(name),
name VARCHAR(256)
);
L'exécution du code ci-dessus produit une erreur, qui n'a pas de sens pour moi :
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index "foo_pkey" for table "foo" NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "bar_pkey_seq" for serial column "bar.pkey" NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index "bar_pkey" for table "bar" NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / UNIQUE will create implicit index "bar_foo_fk_name_key" for table "bar" NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "baz_pkey_seq" for serial column "baz.pkey" NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index "baz_pkey" for table "baz" ERROR: there is no unique constraint matching given keys for referenced table "bar"
********** Error **********
ERROR: there is no unique constraint matching given keys for referenced table "bar"
SQL state: 42830
Quelqu'un peut-il expliquer pourquoi cette erreur se produit ?
