That's what it looked like to me --- you can't just copy an executable that's been built on a far newer platform. However, you could run pg_dumpall on the newer machine and have it connect to the old server across the network. > As far as running older > versions of pg_dumpall, I am not even sure 8.3 will work on 7.0. It's supposed to, and I do test it on occasion ;-). The main gotcha I'd watch out for is that you should probably use --column-inserts instead of relying on COPY mode for a server that old. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
