I'm attempting, for the first time, to make use of referential integrity,
but I'm getting an error.
Warning: PostgreSQL query failed: ERROR: referential integrity violation -
key referenced from LessonsPages not found in Lessons
Here is the table's structures:
CREATE SEQUENCE "LessonsPages_id_seq";
CREATE TABLE "LessonsPages" (
"id" int4 DEFAULT nextval('"LessonsPages_id_seq"') NOT NULL,
"lid" int4 NOT NULL
REFERENCES "Pages"
ON DELETE CASCADE,
"pid" int4 NOT NULL
REFERENCES "Lessons"
ON DELETE CASCADE,
PRIMARY KEY ("lid", "pid")
);
CREATE SEQUENCE "Lessons_id_seq";
CREATE TABLE "Lessons" (
"id" int4 nextval('"Lessons_id_seq"') NOT NULL,
"page_name" char(64),
"summary_email" bool,
"order_num" int2,
PRIMARY KEY ("id")
);
CREATE SEQUENCE "Pages_id_seq";
CREATE TABLE "Pages" (
"id" int4 nextval('"Pages_id_seq"') NOT NULL,
"page_name" char(64),
"summary_email" bool,
"order_num" int2,
PRIMARY KEY ("id")
);
The error comes when:
INSERT INTO "Pages" (order_num) VALUES (1);
SELECT id FROM "Pages";
| id |
16
1 Row
INSERT INTO "Lessons" (lesson_name, order_num) VALUES ('test lesson', 2);
SELECT id FROM "Lessons";
| id |
9
1 Row
INSERT INTO "LessonsPages" (lid,pid) VALUES (9,16);
What am I doing wrong?
