Hi, I am a new user testing this open-source database and I have a few questions. I was able to install PostgreSQL version 8.1.3 on Linux version 9 using the simple install script provided. I created a simple database and populated the database with some data. The inserts, select, delete, drop, etc. commands work great. So I was testing the back up process and ran into a few problems. When I ran the pg_dump it said my pg_dump version was outdated and that I need to use the option -i. When I did I get "pg_dump: server version: 8.1.3; pg_dump version: 7.4.8" 1 Why are the version different? I have no other installs of this product. The dump also failed with this error: Error message from server: ERROR: column "datpath" does not exist The commend was: SELECT (SELECT username FROM pg_user WHERE usesysid = datdba) as dba, pg_encoding_to_char(encoding) as encoding, datpath FROM pg_database WHERE datname = "test" 2 There is no reference to what "datpath" is? Can some one explain what it is, used for, and what to set it to? Brian
