<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi Chris,<br>
<br>
That's true - starting from Postgis 2.0, geometry_columns is a view in the public schema.<br>
<br>
Did you check if that view exists and if the view contains an entry for your spatial table?<br>
<br>
Also make sure, when importing from FME, that you restrict your geometry type to either POINT, POLYGON, LINESTRING, COMPOUNDCURVE or the MULTI versions. QGIS likes a single geometry type per table, while Postgis would permit to store mixed geometry types in
the same geometry column.<br>
<br>
Maybe you did not specify this geometry type restriction when importing your data with FME.<br>
