pg_restore problem

Hi,

I am trying to restore data from a production server (using Postgresql
7.3.x) to a test server using the latest release 7.4.1.
This is what I did:
1) dropdb -U postgres testdb
2) createdb -U postgres testdb
3) pg_restore -U postgres -O -d testdb data.tar
It throws this error:
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR: could not
find function "dblink_tok " in file "/usr/local/pgsql7.4.1/lib/dblink.so"

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks
Roopali

I see in the 7.3 dblink sources:

* Note: dblink_tok is DEPRECATED;
* it *will* be removed in favor of the new version on next release

and indeed it seems to be gone in 7.4. Better update your code.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddres sHere" to ma*******@postg resql.org)

Alright, we are testing pg_restore while restoring a 7GB database. This database has about 6GB of large objects and about 1Gb of textual data. The problem has been verified on PostgreSQL 7.3.2, PostgreSQL 7.3.3 and Mammoth PostgreSQL 7.3.4 . The command being used to backup the data is: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump dominion -h localhost --superuser=postgres --create --format=c -b -o -f /backups/backup.sql.tar.gz The command has also...

Hi, While on the topic of "need for in-place upgrades", I got to think- ing how the pg_restore could be speeded up. Am I wrong in saying that in the current pg_restore, all of the indexes are created in serial? How about this new, multi-threaded way of doing the pg_restore: 0. On the command line, you specify how many threads you want.

Hello, I am currently using PostgreSQL v7.3.4 on a RedHat 8.0 system (2.4.23 kernel) using the ext3 filesystem. I am experiencing problems when performing a pg_restore using a file which is 2.3G in size. The dump, which seemed to run smoothly, was created using the -Fc option. When I perform the restore, the following error occurs before the pg_restore fails: pg_restore: error during file seek: Invalid argument pg_restore: ***...

Hi, I have a problem restoring a database from Postgresql 7.3 ( backup created with 'pg_dump -Ft -b > test.tar' ) to a new database on PostgreSQL 7.4.3 on Cygwin.

Created a pg_dump with Fc (custom format compression) that resulted in a 300+MB file. Now trying to pg_restore this thing fails with either an out of memory error (as in the subject line) on FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE or a: pg_restore in malloc(): error: allocation failed Abort (core dumped) error on FreeBSD 5.2.1-P9 (RELEASE) In both cases I have increased the max data segment size to 1.5GB and the max stack size to 768M or so.

Dear Postgresql people, For the first time I'm trying to use pg_restore to do a partial restore. It looks as if it should be easy: pg_restore -l, filter out the required tables, then pg_restore -L. But unfortunately the listing generated by pg_resotre doesn't include the schema name! Since my database consists of lots of almost-identical schemas, I'm a bit stuck. So this message is really a feature request for "please include the...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
