Therefore, you are running pg_dump 7.x, whether you believe it or not. The error message you'd get if you removed the -i switch would provide further proof, if you require it. > pg_dump out of chroot work > in chroot doesnt work...mystery Doesn't sound very mysterious to me. You've got an old copy of pg_dump somewhere inside the chroot, and perhaps a PATH setting different from what you think it is. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
