Hello,

We are using PostgreSQL v6.4 and have problems when we want update
data throught views.
When we issue an update statment within a view, always obtain 'UPDATE 0'
and the data is not updated. We have checked write permissions on view
and are right.

Any ideas was going wrong?

thanks in advance.

A complete UPDATE test:

test=> create table ttest (t varchar(20), n int4);
test=> create view vtest as select t from ttest;
test=> insert into ttest values('asd', 0);
test=> select * from vtest;
t
---
asd
(1 row)

test=> grant all on ttest, vtest to postgres;
CHANGE

test=> update vtest set t='asdasd';
UPDATE 0
