Ok all here is an question for you. I am running pgsql on a linux 5.1 box. Welcome to the POSTGRESQL interactive sql monitor: Please read the file COPYRIGHT for copyright terms of POSTGRESQL type \? for help on slash commands type \q to quit type \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query You are currently connected to the database: postgres postgres=> create table smile ( postgres-> s1 integer, postgres-> s2 integer ); CREATE postgres=> insert into smile values ( 1 , 2 ); INSERT 17866 1 postgres=> insert into smile values ( 3 , 4 ); INSERT 17867 1 postgres=> select * from smile postgres-> ; s1|s2 --+-- 1| 2 3| 4 (2 rows) postgres=> create function ttt() returns integer postgres-> as 'select 4 as result' postgres-> language 'sql' ; CREATE postgres=> select * from smile where s2=ttt() ; s1|s2 --+-- 3| 4 (1 row) postgres=> create trigger trg1 after insert on smile for each row postgres-> execute procedure ttt() ; ERROR: CreateTrigger: function ttt () does not exist postgres=> \q So my question is - why does the create trigger function fail when the function does in fact exist ?
