Hi I am facing issue while restoring the database. I have taken the backup of my database using pg_dump and then create new database and try to restore it using pg_restore. I am using PostgreSQL 9.0. I have created one small test case to reproduce the issue, attached is the sql file.
*Steps to reproduce:-* 1. Create new database 'Test_Backup' and run the attached .sql file. 2. Take backup of the above mentioned database using pg_dump 3. Create new database 'Test_Restore, and try to restore using pg_restore. As per my understanding, problem is with the pg_dump, need confirmation. After analyzing the dump file(attached with the mail) it seems that *COPY sample* statement comes before *COPY sample_one *which is wrong because test.sample.ref_id is the REFERENCES of test.sample_one(id) table and I have created one constraint on sample table which is getting failed during restore. One thing that I found is if we rename the *'sample'* table to* 'sample2'*and *'sample_one'* table to *'sample1'*,* *bug is not reproducible. So it seems that pg_dump take the backup sequential rather resolving the dependencies. Is there any way to solve this issue without renaming the tables? Please help. -- *Akshay Joshi Senior Software Engineer EnterpriseDB Corporation The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company Phone: +91 20-3058-9522 Mobile: +91 976-788-8246*
