restore from a pg_dumpall file

** High Priority **

Hello everyone,

I have a restore file created by pg_dumpall. The restore file has two
users associated with ownership of tables. The postgres user and a user
called nsadmin.

When I attempt to restore this it won't create my call_handlers because
it's not the postgres user. If I attempt to restore under the nsadmin
user the language handlers fail.

How can I restore this file without changing everything to postgress
user?

Thanks.

You pretty much always have to start the restore of a pg_dumpall file
as superuser. That does not mean it will create everything as owned by
the superuser, but it needs superuser permissions.

I'm restoring a full dump from a 7.3.3 system to a new 7.4.1 system and am getting a 'permission denied' error when it tries to create the user schemas. Below is the relevant portion of the dumpall, is this a problem with permissions on the dumping system or with the restore?

I started by just copying the data directory back, but that hasn't worked for me. Can somebody please give me some detailed directions on restoring the file...
