I get a "referential integrity violation", but the referenced key *does*
exist in the referenced table.

ICS=#
ICS=# insert into item_attrib_a (id,value) values ('10000000014','yes');
ERROR: <unnamed> referential integrity violation - key referenced from item_attrib_a not found in object
ICS=# select * from object where id = '10000000014';
id
-------------
10000000014
(1 row)

ICS=# \d item_attrib_a
Table "item_attrib_a"
Attribute | Type | Modifier

last_modified | timestamp with time zone | not null default "timestamp"('now'::text)

Index: object_id_key

I created the table "item_attrib_a" like so:

CREATE TABLE item_attrib_a (
id int8 references object (id) on delete cascade,
value TEXT
) inherits (last_modified);

I don't think that it's important, but the table "object" is inherited by
other tables.

I'd appreciate any suggestions.
