Migrating my skillset from Oracle to Postgres, I am trying (in vain) to

into the table, the primary key will be automagically assigned.
As Jessica said, use the SERIAL type, which will automatically increment
the sequence and use its value unless an explicit value is given for the
column.
And when I try to INSERT into SENTENCES, without my SENTENCEID, hoping
that the function/trigger/sequence will kick in and assign it for me...architxts=# INSERT INTO SENTENCES (CHAPTERID, SOFFSET) VALUES (123, 147);

This probably means that you have dropped and recreated the function
after you created the trigger. The trigger is still looking for the old
function, but it has been deleted. To avoid such problems, use CREATE
OR REPLACE FUNCTION ... If you haven't got that syntax available, you
need to update PostgreSQL.

Many thanks to Oliver and the several others who provided similar
information. :) I will implement that, yes.
Still, it would be nice to know how you CAN make
triggers/functions/whatnot do what I wanted.. if only for education's
sake. :)
