Your unix-scket isn't in /tmp. Start psql -h localhost and type: show unix_socket_directory; This will show you the corrent path to the unix-socket. You can use that for pg_dump with option -h </path/to/the/socket-dir> Regards, Andreas -- Andreas Kretschmer Kontakt: Heynitz: 035242/47150, D1: 0160/7141639 (mehr: -> Header) GnuPG: 0x31720C99, 1006 CCB4 A326 1D42 6431 2EB0 389D 1DC2 3172 0C99 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
