Postgresql tables exists, but getting “relation does not exist” when querying

Question

I have a postgresql db with a number of tables. If I query:

SELECT column_name
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name=\"my_table\";

Answer 1

In my case, the dump file I restored had these commands.

CREATE SCHEMA employees;
SET search_path = employees, pg_catalog;

I've commented those and restored again. The issue got resolved
