pg_dump/pg_dumpall do not correctly dump search_path

All,

There seems to be a bug in pg_dumpall:

For one of my dbs I've done:

ALTER DATABASE dbname SET search_path = mw, public;

If I do a pg_dumpall I get a line like:

ALTER DATABASE dbname SET search_path TO 'mw, public';

note the 's. It's also in a place in the dump before the mw schema is
created. It's not a big problem but it makes dumps less automatic.

BTW If I do a pg_dump dbname I get a dump which does not reference the
search_path change. I'm not sure if this is by design or it is just
missing.

I'm using PostgreSQL 7.4.5 on linux

Thanks for any help.

Ben

Hi, postgresql 7.4beta4 on linux and postgresql 7.3.4 on linux We have a database that we routinely backup using "pg_dump -a" We have to do this (dump the data only) because of various characteristics of the database (e.g. the dump file tries to create fks to tables that it hasn't created yet if we export schema + data).

The postgreSQL release used is 7.3.4. We would like to dump the objects for particular user. How? I used -U option, the result still dump all the objects with all the users. In order to migrate to 7.4, if the users were not created in 7.4 the pg_dump result will fail or create under wrong user. How to prevent this? What is different between pg_restore and psql if restore the pg_dump result? I tried to use pg_restore, but it always...

I think this is a suggestion/comment! pg_dump man page: --schema-only Dump only the schema (data definitions), no data I think this use of the word schema is confusing, meaning data definitions, whereas elsewhere in the man page schema are used as a namespace definition.

Hi All, I'd like to dump out my database using plain text format. Everything is ok, but the bytea filds.

I have a database in which there is a user and their search path is set to: dbmirror, public, pg_catalog pg_dumpall includes this line in the dump: ALTER USER dbmirror SET search_path TO 'dbmirror, public, pg_catalog'; This isn't correct though, because when it is run through psql to load the user, I get the following:

Dear Sirs, I want to dump all databases, but separately each database in its own file, not all databases in one single file as pg_dumpall does. How can I implement that ? Cheers, Ilia Chipitsine
