If I do: pg_dump -a --disable-triggers I get a warning message: pg_dump: NOTICE: there are circular foreign-key constraints among these table(s): pg_dump: directory pg_dump: You may not be able to restore the dump without using --disable-triggers or temporarily dropping the constraints. pg_dump: Consider using a full dump instead of a --data-only dump to avoid this problem. Of course, this was confusing as hell -- we spent a good bit of time trying to figure out why pg_dump wasn't honoring --disable-triggers. It turns out that it is, it's just that it prints the warning even when it's not applicable. At least from my perspective, I don't think this warning should be printed if the proper command line switches have been given. Is there a good reason to print it anyway? This is with pg 8.4.2 (both client and server). -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com http://people.collaborativefusion.com/~wmoran/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
