Bug reference: 15451
Logged by: Harry Clarke
Email address: harry@harryclarke.me.uk
PostgreSQL version: 10.5
Operating system: Windows Server 2008 R2 standard
Description:

When trying to create a table, or to add a foreign key constraint to a
table, an error (see below) is produced. However, both tables are permanent
tables, and there are no temporary tables that I am aware of.

ERROR: constraints on permanent tables may reference only permanent tables

Note that unlogged tables are also considered not permanent. Is that it?

Greetings,

Andres Freund

ALTER TABLE bnm.table1
ADD CONSTRAINT id_fk FOREIGN KEY (bnm_id)
REFERENCES bnm.table2 (id) MATCH SIMPLE
ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION;

Is table2 an unlogged table perchance?
