Обсуждение: Insert failures

Earlier last month I posted to this list about Postgres refusing to allow
more insertions unless I dumped and recreated the database. I was asked to
send a tarball next time it happened. I don't want to post it to the list,
but if anyone wants to take a look at these data files, please send me a note.

Thanks in advance.

Try
pg_dump databasename > datbase_dumpfile
to dump the database. Then create an empty database on the new server
and run
cat database_dumpfile | psql -d newdatabasename

I don't know what os your on, but this works for me on linux (SuSE 7.0).
