Hi,
I'm trying to use the -j option on pg_restore while restoring a database into PG 8.4.3.
The dump was executed on PG 8.3.7 (Windows, Server 2003) using:pg_dump -Fc -U postgres mydb > mydb.backup
This results in a ~3.4 GB dump file.
When I try to restore I'm using:pg_restore -d mydb -U postgres -j 4 mydb.backup
This results in an error:
pg_restore: [custom archiver] dumping a specific TOC data block out of order not supported without ID on this input stream (fseek required)
The dump works fine if I omit the -j option. What am I doing wrong?
I'm pretty sure that you need to use the 8.4 version of pg_dump when you create the backup file, then it should work.

Thanks,
