Hi Everybody, I am experimenting with backups and restores…. I am running into something curious and would appreciate any suggestions. Backing up from: Postgres 8.3.0 Windows 2003 sp1 server (32bit) -Took a compressed binary backup of a single db (the default option in pgAdminIII, right click backup) -Took a plane backup of the same single db, (plane option in the right click backup gui in pgAdminIII)
Did you back up using the old version of PgAdmin-III with the old pg_dump? If so, problems restoring into PostgreSQL 9.1 are likely.
If possible, dump the old database using the *new* pg_dump. If you're using the PgAdmin-III GUI, connecting to the old DB from the new PgAdmin on the new computer should do the trick.
