Re: 8.2.4 pg_restore on WinXP and pipes

Yes it does the same thing:

$ gunzip < mydb.dump.20070819.gz | pg_restore -v -O -d mydb
pg_restore: [archiver] did not find magic string in file header

Most odd since it seems to work just fine if gunzip first and then use:

pg_restore -v -O -d mydb < mydb.dump.20070819
