Обсуждение: Postgres back up error

Hello All,

I am trying to implement postgres database backup and restore on existing database. I am using the pg_dump utility to back up the database pg_dump -U postgres  testdb  -f testdb.sql

My backup is successfully generated with the latest data in it BUT when I restore this file using the command “psql -U postgres db.sql testdb  -f  in another standby server I am getting this below error. I understand that its stopping me because the database already exist with table column  as primary key column. How can I over write this I need to restore my database nightly on my standby server.
