When you do a regular pg_dump, it won't include all the roles. You to include roles have should always use pg_dumpall -l ( you can read up more using #man pg_dumpall).
Good luck!

I'm in some deep trouble here...
We've been running 8.1 on our CentOS 5 linux web server for many years. Not having some of the features of 9.0 was starting to become a serious issue, so I put in an order to the ServerPath data team to upgrade to PostGreSQL 9.0
This worked, was a bit rocky but they did it. Now I'm on my own as their services really are hosting and the OS and when it to higher level things, that falls back on us.
First: they they forgot to restore /var/lib/psql/data/pg_hba.conf
Of course I had a back up of that and so when I restore it then at least my controlPanel (VirtualMin-WebMin) was able to log into psgl
so then I set about try to restore databases from .sql dumps from 8.1 via the command line, I log in su postgres and try:
psql -d postgres -f /home/dbase-backups/htde.sql
So at first I'm told "role sadhu is missing" so I go to WebMin and create the PostGres user "sadhu
and try again..
Now I'm getting the following and at this point I totally do not know what to do next.
I tried to restore a few others and most are throwing this duplicate key value violation.
Any help will be very much appreciated...
