Description

When creating a table named 'lakes' in the DB Manager a constraint 'lakes_pkey' and the index 'sidx_lakes_geom' is created. But when renaming the table the constraint and the index don't get new names. So it's not possible to create a table named 'lakes' after renaming the original 'lakes' table.

Error: Relation „sidx_lakes_geom“ already exists

  • Target version set to Version 2.14

Also renaming the sequence of a serial column fails:

CREATE TABLE lakes
(
gid SERIAL NOT NULL,
geom geometry(polygon, SRID),
CONSTRAINT lakes_pkey PRIMARY KEY (gid)
);

Default value for column 'gid' is 'nextval('lakes_gid_seq'::regclass)'. It's not renamed after renaming table 'lakes'.

The workaround is to delete the constraints and recreate them. They are recreated with the correct name according to DB-Manager's naming scheme.

Note the linked ticket #14104 regarding the sequence issue.
