Hello,
I have different database installations. One is a postgresql 8.0 and
one is a 8.1 installation.
I want to move the database from postgres 8.1 to the postgres 8.0
installation. When i restore the dump i created in 8.1, there are
more then 50 errors. thre seems to be a problem with the sequences. I
checked the postgresql documentation and i noticed that in 8.0 the
function nextval takes a text-type and in 8.1 a regclass-type.
How can i get a dump of the 8.1 db that works on the 8.0 install?
Here is a dump of the errors:
