Re: pg_restore error

I had the problem in 7.3.2. Postgres pg_restore reied to restore views before tables. I had to use -l to generate a dump list and
change the order of restore manually and restore with -L

OK, the manual talk about this solution, but I do have more than 2000
objects in my DB. What is the reason that pg_dump/pg_restore are not able to
create an correct order ob DB objects with respect to their constraints. All
tables must be created before the views are created and so on?

Hi,

Try "pg_restore -l" to generate a TOC.
You may rearrange the TOC file.
Then use "pg_restore -L".

Hope it helps,
