Bug reference: 6127
Logged by: Greg Johnson
Email address: greg(dot)johnson(at)interprose(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: pg_dump (Postgr
Operating system: CentOS release 5.6 (Final)
Description: pg_restore failing: unexpected message type 0x58 during
COPY from stdin
Details:

I am running into an error loading a backup of the production database..
never had a problem before.

These are dump /restore commands I am using:
pg_dump -Fc -h ackbar -U webar_admin webar -f
/var/portal/backup/db/webar-20110719180003.gz

pg_restore -d webar_dev -U webar_admin -Fc webar-20110719180003.gz

Both machines have same version of postgres :
[root(at)awing ~]# pg_dump --version
pg_dump (PostgreSQL) 8.4.8

[root(at)dev ~]# pg_restore --version
pg_restore (PostgreSQL) 8.4.8

MD5s are the same:
[root(at)awing db]# md5sum webar-20110719180003.gz
f4ec991e4635cd70a1f85864e04e6214 webar-20110719180003.gz

[root(at)dev ~]# md5sum webar-20110719180003.gz
f4ec991e4635cd70a1f85864e04e6214 webar-20110719180003.gz

This is the error from dev while trying to restore:
pg_restore: [custom archiver] could not read from input file: end of file

Here is what I found in the pg_log file:
LOG: checkpoint starting: xlog
LOG: checkpoint complete: wrote 8147 buffers (3.1%); 0 transaction log

Here is another log entry:

Looks like they are happening at different spots..

I have tried 5 different dump/restores and all error out.

There is nothing in /var/log/messages
