Hello again,
While I was searching for a solution, I saw an example of manual running of
dump file within psql. Tried this and it did work just fine.
\connect mydb
\i last_backup.bak
Above two commands completed without any loading error at all.
Now I wonder why command line did not work.
Do let me know if there is a known reason, please.
Thanks & Regards,
Ertan

Subject: Cannot restore windows dump on linux
Hello,
I am using PostgreSQL 14.5
I tried to move a Linux database to Windows. Both identical version.
Linux dump successfully loaded on Windows system.
Reason for changing system didn't work out and now I am trying to move it
back because it has some modifications.
I just dumped a database backup on windows to a dump file. I see dump file
contains "\r\n" as new line identifier (hence windows dump). Just to
clarify, this is not \N character I am mixing.
When I try to restore windows dump on regular Linux system, I get a lot of
errors and it stops at this one below where this is a pure data load
position.
ERROR: syntax error at or near "43589"
LINE 1: 43589 7102e523-f401-4cce-852d-e537f863886f.
I also tried to stop at first error when restoring, in this case it stops at
below error
root@app:/home/ek# psql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -U myuser -d mydb <
last_backup.bak
SET
SET
SET
SET

set_config

ERROR: index "ix_xrates_date" does not exist
I searched the internet and I could not solve my problem.
How can I successfully dump on Widnows and restore on Linux?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Ertan
