How do I change column default value in PostgreSQL?
I've tried:
ALTER TABLE ONLY users ALTER COLUMN lang DEFAULT 'en_GB';
But it gave me an error:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "DEFAULT"
Postgresql Solutions
Solution 1 - Postgresql
'SET' is forgotten
ALTER TABLE ONLY users ALTER COLUMN lang SET DEFAULT 'en_GB';
Solution 2 - Postgresql
If you want to remove the default value constraint, you can do:
ALTER TABLE <table> ALTER COLUMN <column> DROP DEFAULT;
