-O not working

От

I backed up all my databases using:
pg_dumpall -O -c -U postgres > /tmp/pgalldb2
-O to remove owners on all objects
-c to drop databases before recreating them during the restore to prevent duplicate records

I restored all the databases with this command
psql -U postgres -f /tmp/pgalldb2 postgres

I tried to drop a user but was denied with the message, ". . . some objects depend on it."

Why isn't the -O flag not removing the owner from all objects?

Thanks

Marc

Your problem is likely the -c not the -O. In your target database you
have a role that owns objects. You can't drop a role if it owns objects.
