Обсуждение: pg_dumpall error

Hi there, I hope that you can help

I am getting the following error message when i run the pg_dumpall
command

pg_dump: SQL command failed
pg_dump: Error message from server: ERROR:  relation
"esales.invoiceline" does not exist
pg_dump: The command was: LOCK TABLE esales.invoiceline IN ACCESS
SHARE MODE
pg_dumpall: pg_dump failed on database "hermes", exiting

The esales.invoiceline table is there are can be accessed.  We do run
overnight updates to this table and i was wondering if the updates are
conflicting with backup processs ?

We are running PostgreSQL 8.1.3 and the pg_dumpall command is

pg_dumpall -s --disable_triggers -h $CURRENT_HOST -U USER_AUTH >
schema.sql

Any help would be really appriceated.

Thanks
Fran

You mean that if you issue the same command by hand, it works?  That
would be bizarre.

Update to something current (preferably 8.1.10).  Then try REINDEXing
pg_class.
