This doesn't explain the error, but solves the problem for me: use a query
=
like
SELECT Max(registration_id) AS MaxID FROM registrations;
Another solution, if you are using a sequenced serial value, is to use the
=
'last_value' function on the sequencing table:
select registration_registration__seq.last_value from
registration_registr=
ation__seq;

Hi,
I've setup a query in my program to get the biggest value used in my
"custo=
mers" table. There is a serial column called customer_id. I use the
follo=
wing query within my program and it returns, lets say, 3. If I run the
sam=
e query from the psql console window (over and over and at the same point
w=
here I've stepped to in my program), it will consistently return 2 whereas
=
the program will consistently return 3 (always one more).
Here is the query to get the last ID used:
SELECT customer_id from customers order by customer_id DESC limit 1;
I do one fetch and have my result programmatically which is always 1 more
t=
han the value returned by the psql console window method. What gives?
Many thanks,
Mike
