Hi,
we just encountered this strange thing in our database. All our sequences were reset to 1. Is there any known bug that could be related to this ? Maybe with a jdbc driver or something ? We are using version 7.0.3.
It could very well be an exotic coding problem, but I want to be sure that it has nothing to do with our version of postgresql.
thanks,
Henk

All of your sequences at the same time? It's really hard to see how any
internal bug in Postgres could cause that. They're not stored together,
and there's no operation that visits them all. Sure you didn't have some
client application run around and issue a lot of setvals?
But having said that, 7.0.3 is verging on ancient history, and we are
not fixing bugs in it anymore. I think you are well overdue for an
update.
regards, tom lane

Somebody called 'Tom Lane' tried to say something! Take a look:

Could this problem be related with CYCLE in SEQUENCEs creation?
