We’re having problems restoring a database, we
dumped and tried to restore on the same databaseserver., and used the command: pg_dump -Ft -b {dbname} > {filename} to dump the database and pg_restore -d {dbname} {filename} to restore the database. At some point we’re
getting these error messages: pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error while PROCESSING

ERROR: could not create unique index DETAIL: Table contains duplicated values. Command was: ALTER TABLE ONLY
_bezittingtypeoptie_id ADD CONSTRAINT
_bezittingtypeoptie_id_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id); We focused on the first error first, we hoped by
fixing it to be able to fix the rest to (there are lots more of these errors, I
just showed the first few). We tried to look for duplicates with: select id from _afdeling_id group by id having
count(id) > 1; This returned 0 rows. We tried reindexing and the
reindexing worked fine, which shouldn’t work if there are duplicated
values, right?. We searched for an answer and found something about the
lc_ctype, we checked it and ours is on “C”. That seems to be right,
or do we need to check the strcoll() lc_ctype? Now we’re actually out of ideas how to solve
this issue, any help solving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Martin Schievink |
