Обсуждение: BUG #13438: Restore using GUI client - Data Not Loading
The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 13438 Logged by: cathi soule Email address: cathi.soule@roberthalf.com PostgreSQL version: 9.4.2 Operating system: windows Description: Hello, I am trying to backup / restore a table named 'user' using Postgres GUI/client. The restore does not load data. I suspect the issue may be the tablename 'user' (not my table). The backup msgs are listed below. My other successful restores had 2 additional msgs (pg_restore: processing data for table "skillc" pg_restore: setting owner and privileges for TABLE DATA skillc). Defaults were used on backup and restore. Does anyone know how to resolve? Thank you for any help! C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/9.4/bin\pg_restore.exe --host localhost --port 5432 --username "postgres" --dbname "d27qs7oej1f23" --no-password --data-only --table \"user\" --schema xyz1 --verbose "E:\20150611 Mig32QA user4.backup" pg_restore: connecting to database for restore Process returned exit code 0.

I'm not real sure what backslashes do in the Windows command interpreter,
but I bet the problem is that what pg_restore is getting as the argument
of the --table switch is not just user but something with quote marks
and/or backslashes in it, and that's not matching any table name it can
find in the file so it doesn't restore anything.
Try leaving off all that decoration. "user" is not a keyword as far
as the shell is concerned, so it doesn't really need quoting in this
context.

Hi Tom,
I am using the GUI to try and 'restore' the 'user' table - which was backed=
up using the GUI 'backup' function. Is there a way to 'leave off all that=
decoration' as you suggest below - using the GUI? Unfortunately I don't k=
now my way around in native environment. We do have 'PSQL Console' plugin =
- although I have not been successful trying to restore here. That is why =
we were relying on the GUI - which worked great for all our other tables.=20
Thank you very much for your help,
Cathi Soule=20

Better file a bug report with the authors of whatever GUI that is; they
are using quoting rules that are unrelated to reality.

To clarify - we are trying to restore the 'user' table using pgAdmin III 'r=
estore' function. This function is selected after right-click on table in =
schema in Object browser. We successfully used 'backup' and 'restore' in p=
gAdmin III GUI on 30 tables. This 'user' table has been the only issue. T=
hanks again for your help.=20
