Hi,
I found out this morning that I cannot get pg_dump to work at all on
my database. It refuses to create a dump and instead just freezes.
When using the verbose option (-v) i get the following output and then
it stops (it at one point ran for days on end before i even noticed)
pg_dump: saving encoding
pg_dump: saving database definition
pg_dump: reading schemas
pg_dump: reading user-defined types
pg_dump: reading user-defined functions
pg_dump: reading user-defined aggregate functions
pg_dump: reading user-defined operators
pg_dump: reading user-defined operator classes
pg_dump: reading user-defined tables
I think this problem is somehow related to a VIEW problem that I
have. I created a VIEW of semi-large tables, which did not come back
with any errors. However, when I go to view it, it never finishes
loading. Also, I cannot drop this view as this as well never
finishes.
PGSQL version: 7.4.2
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
