Folks,
I am not subscribed to -bugs. Please e-mail me directly.
For some time on 7.2.1 I have suspected that one or two items from large,=
=20
complex databases was not getting backed up. However, I could not say=20
conclusively that this was the case, as it was always possible that I had=
=20
missed something somewhere.
Today I just got done with a very painful restore. PG_dump had failed to b=
ack=20
up a small view on which 6 other views and functions depended, and I had to=
=20
spend several hours editing the 99mb backup file by hand.
I'd like to work with someone on pinpointing the problem, as obviously this=
=20
could be a critical issue for production databases. However, I'm not sure=
=20
how to submit the files as they are very large (> 90mb) and how can I send=
=20
the original database not as a backup file?
