I am having trouble inserting geometries into a table. The geometry<br>
column has a constraint:<br>
enforce_geotype_wkb_geometry CHECK (geometrytype(wkb_geometry) =<br>
'MULTIPOLYGON'::text<br>
OR wkb_geometry IS NULL);<br>
<br>
I am attempting to insert what I assume are polygons generated by<br>
st_buffer() but they violate the constraint. If I pgsql2shp the<br>
polygons out I can insert them into the table, but that's pretty ugly.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
