If all syntax correct while creating unique key or composite unique key than 
there is no chances of fail. In my experience I m facing same issue but it’s 
rear case, if any extra space in data (insert query) than duplicate data 
inserted. Please chk thorough insert query . May be the issue not sure. In 
oracle extra space omit but in Postgres it would not.

Subject: Re: Unique key constraint Issue

Hi Ajit,

Thank you for your reply!

The result of the query is same across all servers and yes streaming 
replication does not have any issue but the question is how did duplicate 
values entered when there unique key in place.

  Output should be consistent across servers below query o/p

SELECT conname, pg_get_constraintdef(oid)
FROM pg_constraint
WHERE conrelid = 'your table name'::regclass AND contype = 'u';
(different datatype combine in UK is not an issue). This issue may not happen 
in asynchronous, log shipping or streaming replication. In logical replication 
it may create problem.

Hello,

We have postgresql servers with PostgreSQL 13.10   on Ubuntu release 22.04.

The issue is a unique key constraint with two columns one is character another 
is integer. At some point the unique key did not work as I see duplicate values 
with these two columns combination and it happened on multiple servers on 
multiple databases on same table with same unique key. I tried db dump and 
restore but the key is failing to create when restore with duplicate value 
errors.
