i just did a dump of a db which was owned by postgres but some tables owned by other users and it ran fine.
I am not sure of that nanoscopic extension though.
*******************************
createdb -e foobar;
postgres=# \c foobar
You are now connected to database "foobar" as user "postgres".
foobar=# set role demo;
SET
foobar=> create table xx(id int);
CREATE TABLE
foobar=> \dt

(1 row)
foobar=> insert into xx values (1);
INSERT 0 1
foobar=> \dt

*******************************
works fine.
I do not know that extension(nanoscopic) though.
it is reading some tables in a public schema, but not even dumping the schema.
yep, thats odd if it does not throw any errors, coz any errors wrt permissions are thrown right away to console.
maybe someone with more exp would be able to help.

I've tried all the relevant looking command line switches and nothing seems to dump the actual contents of the database. It just dumps the extension command. Can anyone help me to figure this out please? It is probably something stupid that I am doing wrong.Simon.pg_dump: last built-in OID is 16383
