the pump doesnt seem to be placeable.
neither on the shore nor elsewhere.
existing pumps work fine.
removing an existing pump and trying to place it again at the exact same spot doesnt work either

I can confirm on a brand new game, Windows 64 bit, that pumps are not placeable.

a quick fix is to go in and change one file a little.
in
Factorio\data\base\prototypes\entity
open demo entities search for pump and add "placeable-player", so that it looks like the code below
Code: Select all
{
type = "pump",
name = "pump",
icon = "__base__/graphics/icons/pump.png",
flags = {"placeable-neutral", "placeable-player", "player-creation"},
minable = {mining_time = 1, result = "pump"},

(Basic question, just to check that the file got actually read after you edited)
Did you shutdown the game before you edited the file?

Does not work for me as well.

Thanks for the reports. The problem with the pump is an internal problem that can't be fixed by changing the lua data files. It will be addressed in the 0.4.1 bugfix release.
