Yes, as I said before, 'pg_dumpall' only produces SQL format dumps, which
you restore using 'psql'. 'pg_restore' is only for binary dumps.
Doug,
I read the backup/restore web page to which you pointed me. I think that
the new database is not initiated. When I follow the instructions and
enter:
psql -f /var/tmp/backup.sql
I see:
psql: FATAL: database "postgres" does not exist
What happens when you psql -U postgres template1 ?
This is the same message I read when I append 'postgres' to the command.
Back
to the manual.
Thanks,
Rich
