PGAdmin III v1.6.1 binary install Windows XP SP2 with all known patches
This was an issue in v1.4.2, as well. I can backup a PostgreSQL v8.0.4 database with large objects with no problems. However, if I use PGAdminIII v1.6.1 to restore the database I receive an error message when pg_restore tries to restore the large objects and then the return code is set to 1. I have created a pgpass.conf file in the Application Data folder of the profile that I'm logged into when using PGAdminIII but that has no effect. If it's supposed to then maybe I did something wrong. The way I successfully restore the database is to go into a command window on a different machine (Windows Server 2003 in this case) and run pg_restore from there. At the point where PGAdminIII fails, the command prompt version of pg_restore prompts for the password again. I posted this issue before but I didn't provide as much information because the problem is so easy to reproduce and because I was very busy at the time. If you need more information on how to reproduce the problem, please let me know. Patrick Headley Linx Consulting, Inc. (303) 916-5522 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.linxco-inc.com
