    Hi list,
    
    I've dumped my databases, but 6.4 doesn't like the code produced by
    6.3.2's pg_dump.
    
    CREATE TABLE user (username varchar(128), realname varchar(128), password
    varchar(128), allow int4, id int4);
    ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "user"
    
    Exact the same statement works perfectly with 6.3.2. It also doesn't like
    INSERTing in tables named user. Is user a reserved name?
                         
              Regards,

    I found the same thing in my conversion process. The keyword user is
    reserved....change your table name to users and it will work, however
    you'll need to change all references to the table user to users
    as well.
