Hi, While doing some testing with pg_dumpall, I noticed one weird behaviour.
While we create the database, we are allowing the database name with a new line (if name is in double quote). *For example*: > postgres=# create database "dbstr1; > dbstr 2"; > CREATE DATABASE > postgres=# Here, the database name is in 2 lines. With the help of pg_dumpall, I tried to dump but I am getting an error for the new line. -- > -- Database "dbstr1; > dbstr 2" dump > -- > > shell command argument contains a newline or carriage return: " > dbname='dbstr1; > dbstr 2'" > After this message, we are stopping the dump. I think, if we are allowing new lines in the db name, then we should dump it. Please let me know your thoughts about this error. -- Thanks and Regards Mahendra Singh Thalor EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
