I have been trying to figure out why I can't insert
into a table and I think it has something to do with
the sequnce.

I am able to use able to properly insert into the
table using the the shell, but I am not able to insert
using a php script:

INSERT INTO requests (time_stamp, req_num,
recommended_by) VALUES (now(),
nextval('requests_req_num_seq'), 'foo');

Here is the schema I'm using:
DROP SEQUENCE requests_req_num_seq;
DROP TABLE requests;

CREATE SEQUENCE requests_req_num_seq INCREMENT BY 1
START WITH 1000;

CREATE TABLE requests (
        time_stamp              timestamp       PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT 'now',      
                
        req_num                 integer         DEFAULT
nextval('acq_requests_req_num_seq') NOT NULL,
        recommended_by          varchar(35)     NOT NULL
);                      
GRANT ALL ON requests TO wwwrun, postgres;

Check you server logs and it should tell you why. Actually, check the error code in your PHP and it should tell you why.

My immediate guess - you haven't granted permission to the sequence for user "wwwrun".
