Try using the 7.4.2 version of pg_dump to dump out the 7.1.3 database. pg_dump is written to talk to multiple versions of the server, and it's generally recommended to use the same version of pg_dump as the server you're restoring into. -Doug ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
