The client utilities (such as psql, pg_dump, etc) should match version numbers for best compatibility. What I'd do is first upgrade the server to 8.4, then the client. Or upgrade the client while you're doing your dump/restore to upgrade from 8.2 to 8.4. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
