The problem here is that pg_dump is setting up a circular dependency that it doesn't know how to break correctly. You've got a couple of views that are implicitly dependent on the primary keys of their underlying tables, because they use a GROUP BY the primary key without also grouping by other columns they use post-grouping. That means that pg_dump has to dump the view definition after the creation of the primary key, but it also needs to put the view out sooner than that for other reasons. It manages to deal with that okay in the default mode, but when you have --clean in there, it ends up generating an illegal DROP RULE command. This is something we ought to fix, but it's not exactly trivial to do. In the meantime I'd suggest changing the view definitions to not assume that the underlying tables have primary keys. It looks like in view_temp_export_geo_recherche_extra_sites_projets you need to add c.official_language_id to the GROUP BY, and similarly in view_temp_export_geo_recherche_offtrad_sites. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
