When you created the table you likely did this:

create table Example (...

While the wizard actually did this:

create table "Example" (...

So, postgresql folded case on your create table, and actually created a
table called example, while the wizard's quoting the table name meant
the table was named Example. This should fix you up:

alter table "Example" rename to example;
