I know this is not strictly a pgadmin issue, but I don't know where else to turn. At worst, perhaps someone can steer me in the right direction. :)) Dave seems terribly knowlegable on pgsql, so I thought I'd risk the question: I am trying to restore a database from a gzipped file: I believe that backups were done as complete files (not partial) under Postgresql 7.0.3. Pg_restore does not recognize the ungzipped file "filename.psql". The command, psql -d database -f filename.psql, restores it partially, but with numerous errors and the database is mostly empty. As I understand, this command restores the file to an existing database, so I had to create one with the original filename. But I don't know if the newly created database must have the exact same permissions, ownership, etc. as the original. I am told to install the earlier version of Postgresql to restore, but that does not work - cannot configure it. Even if that works, how can the restored database be migrated to a newer version of Postgresql? Does anybody out there know about this kind of thing? Thanks for any help. P. Jourdan
