In which order did you create the constraints ?
Was there a valid (active?) primary key on the other table when you got this error ?
Constraints were created in the "destination"database thru the installation script.
Order?Like I said ,i let the app create it/them.(It can however be rev engineerd to see in which fashion it was done).

"source" (staging thusdb had nothing, it's a pure dump scenario.There was no active/valid key on the destinationtable as far as I know(my log file, which I generated while disabling the constraints/triggers don't throwany exception(s))

Keep 'em coming.
