When testing this Friday, I received the following error:

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error while PROCESSING TOC:
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error from TOC entry 5225; 0 16990 TABLE
DATA cust postgres
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] COPY failed: ERROR:  invalid byte sequence
for encoding "UTF8": 0xb0
HINT:  This error can also happen if the byte sequence does not match
the encoding expected by the server, which is controlled by
"client_encoding".
CONTEXT:  COPY cust, line 778
^^^^^^^ In the COPY command for that table.

I picked up ont that, but the dump is binary, thus I can not view the actual code.


Is there any easy way to figure out which record caused this error?

Thanks.
