Hi all

I have a question, why is that pg_dump does not fail when dumping the
database but only fails when restoring the database?
Dumping the database from same server and restoring it on the same server.
Since there is data issues inside the database why is the pg_dump not
failing as well?
This is postgres 8.4.2.

Please assist. This is a frustrating , application developers need answers
from us.
