So you don't need it and it won't help you. Yes, I found that out too. But it doesn't hurt. 🤣 > Me neither. But another comment. You create the database, so there should be no objects in it. Why do you use the -c, -C, and --if-exists options? Try without them. On a new database, you should only need: > > pg_restore -d mydb mydb.dump.gz I need -C because I need ACLs to be recreated too. I tried with -C only, i.e. no -c but that doesn't work for some reason. The --if-exists is a script remnant of my past tries to suppress some messages. I'll try removing that as I rewrote my create database script which runs before importing. Cheers, Paul
