When I try to reproduce this I get pg_restore: [archiver] input file does not appear to be a valid archive Perhaps there are specific cases where it gets confused, but you'll need to submit a sample file for us to poke at. Another possible explanation is that this is a bug that's been fixed since whichever 8.3.x release you are using (which you didn't specify, tut tut). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
