Try 'pg_dump --help' for more information.
phpbb only works with version 7.x.
Oh... if you are running 7.3 your pretty much hosed... You need to
upgrade to 7.4 at a minimum.
Sounds doable. Will such an upgrade hose all my client's stuff, or will
a simple rpm -Fvh, and a /etc/init.d/postgreSQL restart do it?
Ehhh. no. You will need to do a full dump, install 7.4 and restore. I
strongly suggest that you use a consultant for this you don't want to
make a mistake.
For full disclosure I run a consulting company for PostgreSQL but there
are many others on this list who I am sure would also be willing to help
you.
- is the underlying data structure the same, or are there some major
architectural changes that will toast existing applications?
I recall (I think) that a big difference between 7.3 and 7.4 is some
timestamp / timezone issues.
