[BUGS] pg_dump/pg_restore

[Colin Stearman]

Hi,   2 possible bugs in pg_dump/pg_restore related to large objects.   1. Large objects dumped, deleted then restored do not retain their original OIDs.  Big problem as we reference their OIDs in tables. 2. The pg_restore command --list indicated no Blobs in the dump file even when there are.  For example: . . 72; 46588445 TABLE DATA table_3da6183d8bb21 nobody 73; 46588481 TABLE DATA table_3da625d622b72 nobody 74; 46588517 TABLE DATA table_3da625f19cc95 nobody 75; 0 BLOBS BLOBS   This is version 7.2.3 and the pg_dump used -c -C -o -Fc -Z1 -b switches,  pg_restore used no switches (other than -d, of course).   Thanks, Colin --------------------------------------------- Colin Stearman President Ashdown Technologies 119 E.
