Stephen,

0) SQL> select table_name, constraint_name, constraint_type from
user_constraints where constraint_name = 'GDS_HOSTS_PK';

TABLE_NAME                     CONSTRAINT_NAME                C
------------------------------ ------------------------------ -
GDS_HOSTS                      GDS_HOSTS_PK                   P

-->> above is just a constraint name on table gds_hosts..no issues so far..

1) SQL> select * from user_cons_columns where constraint_name =
'GDS_HOSTS_PK';

OWNER                          CONSTRAINT_NAME
------------------------------ ------------------------------
TABLE_NAME
------------------------------
COLUMN_NAME
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  POSITION
----------
ORS                            GDS_HOSTS_PK
GDS_HOSTS
GDS_HOST

--> the constraitn primary key is on ORS column and not on GDS_HOSTS it
seems..

2) you are selecting second column by the statement select gds_host from
gds_hosts;

3) and you are inserting into which columns..ORS or GDS_HOSTS..

I think there is no problem in table, constraitnt declaration and associated
index..please check your insert statement..may be column listing is the
issue...

Thanks!
