Creating a sequence by means of the graphical interface works, though a subsequent select nextval() claims he can't find the sequence


...

If I create the sequence without the double quotes

CREATE SEQUENCE Uqn7

...

The sequence is created and works !

The name gets folded to lower case without the quote so I suspect what is happening is that you are not quoting the name in the nextval call correctly. This works:

SELECT nextval('"Uqn7"');

To avoid having to use the double quotes at all, stick to names that aren't keywords, and are lower case only, optionally including numbers or _
