// Login to psql and run the following 
// What is the result?
SELECT MAX(id) FROM your_table;
// Then run...
// This should be higher than the last result.
SELECT nextval('your_table_id_seq');
// If it's not higher... run this to try and fix it. (run a quick pg_dump first...)
SELECT setval('your_table_id_seq', (SELECT MAX(id) FROM your_table)+1);
