A pity the dump file got clobbered. I suspect the dump from 6.5 was
in a form that 7.0 rejected - you had those two failed creates in the
log.
Try this:
rename range and range.pkey
Recreate range
Overwrite the new range and range.pkey with the old files
If that does not work, I think I have seen a reference on one of the
PostgreSQL lists to a tool for extracting tuples from a file. I can't
remember where, though. Can anyone point us to it?
