[GRASS-user] v.to.db: values not added to table

[Rich Shepard]

   Using 7.7.svn and pg.connect -p reporting the database is postgres.

   The table 'stations' currently has six attribute columns: site_nbr,
site_name, lat, lon, easting, and northing (the last two added using psql.)

   To add easting and northing values to the table I ran v.to.db with this
result:

v.to.db map=stations op=coor col=easting,northing units=meters --o
WARNING: Values in column <easting> will be overwritten
WARNING: Values in column <northing> will be overwritten

82 categories read from vector map (layer 1)
82 records selected from table (layer 1)
82 categories read from vector map exist in selection from table
82 records updated/inserted (layer 1)

which looks encouaging. But, when I query the database there are no values
in the easting and northing columns:

# select * from stations limit 5;
  site_nbr |                   site_name                   |     lon     |
   lat    | easting | northing

   What have I missed here?

TIA,
