Re: Duplicate user in pg_shadow

Hi

I tried to delete the user from the pg_user but couldnt. This username is
being duplicated so we have the same 2 records.

What is the cause ? Is it due to memory or wrong configuration?

Thank you,
REgards.

Maybe you could delete one of the users from the pg_shadow table, do the
dump and then after the dump is restored, recreate the dropped user (and
it will get a new sysid)
