Ok, thanks. I ran the script like this: ./removets2 wikidb.tar > newtoc pg_restore -L newtoc wikidb.tar > wikidb-psql Then I edited wikidb-psql, changing those "public.tsvector" datatypes to just "tsvector". After that: psql wikidb < wikidb-psql And got no errors. What should we do with the data type in the script? Currently it just looks at the TOC, but that's not enough to search/replace schema.tsvector to tsvector. Is it enough if we mention that in the migration guide? Perhaps we should include the functionality of that script in pg_dump. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
